02:42 BB at work OF was 00:52 ie
02:42 BB at work and OF was again 02:05 ie
03:58 BB at work and another OF at 03:43 ie
03:58 BB at work That was a dual with Lion which was also 03:43 ie
03:59 BB at work That looked like an initial to me. Was going strong for about 8 minutes. Plus I don't have any earlier Lions in my screenshots
04:59 BB at work Lion was 04:43 ie
05:22 BB at work OF was 05:13 ie, I think. Cam was stuck for some time, so I don't have many captures to look through but I am pretty sure
05:22 BB at work Looks like Giantess is still going... big steam cloud right now
05:23 BB at work I am going home soon, have to run some errands on the way, so there will be no more reports from me until sunrise
06:51 cb OF 650
06:51 BB Hi cb
06:51 BB Made it home just in time for OF :)
06:52 cb OH hi BB sorry wasn't watching the lit
06:52 cb list
06:53 BB No problem, I am not settled in yet... just rushed in to see if someone had posted OF
06:53 BB And I am hoping for another Lion... hope Giantess didn't mess up the nice Lion series
06:54 BB The second Lion I saw this night was very weak
06:54 BB hi CC
06:54 cb no worries. I have been on for about 15 minute
06:54 cb brb
06:54 CC hi all
06:55 BB yes, I don't know either why I felt obligated to rush in... well, you know how it is... silly
06:58 BB I think there is Lion again
06:59 BB 06:57 ie
07:06 vw good morning ladies
07:06 CC hi
07:07 BB hi vw
07:07 cb hi vw
07:08 vw I see Giantess is still putting on a show today. Wonderful steam from her.
07:09 BB Big steam from her was sometimes visible during the night, too
07:09 BB hi Derek
07:09 vw Hi Derek
07:10 Derek Hi All
07:11 vw The Park's snow fell a little too far east yesterday. Its on my sidewalks instead of the boardwalk.
07:12 Derek So, what's the problem? Simply use your skis to visit the shops LOL
07:12 vw I certainly could D! It would be easier then driving too.
07:13 vw Only problem would be having to go up the hill coming home at the end of the day.
07:16 vw lots of steam from various vents today.
07:23 BB There is another Lion. This one is a major
07:24 BB First capture is 07:21 ie
07:26 BB Checked my screenshots again, there was a minor Lion at 06:57 that went on for about 1 1/2 minutes
07:41 vw Have to head out for the day. Hope everybody has a wonderful one.
07:41 vw bye!
07:41 BB bye vw

08:59 BB bye lc
08:59 Rich Hi BB
08:59 BB It is too early to tell but it looks to me like Giantess did mess a little with Lion
09:00 Rich g
09:00 BB Interval between major eruptions seems to be 90 minutes now
09:00 Rich k
09:00 BB It tries after 60 minutes but doesn't really erupt much
09:00 Rich I'll watch for it.
09:01 BB I noticed that at the 04:42 eruption, looked very weak to me
09:01 BB And then right before 7am it tried again, full eruption half an hour later
09:02 BB Just checked my screenshots, around the last OF Lion was trying again, but just gave off a few heavy steam puffs
09:02 BB And now again, 30 minutes later, major eruption
09:02 BB Ha, I bet this is just coincidence, but it is fun speculating X-D
09:02 Rich Interesting to see how Lion plays out.
09:03 Rich We learn by speculating. g
09:03 BB Somebody waving at the cam?
09:03 Rich ~~~
09:04 BB I wish they knew you are waving back at them g
09:04 Rich Me too.
09:04 Rich Depression seems to be steaming
09:05 Rich But I can't tell the difference between Depression and the Dwarfs.
09:05 BB I thought Depression was ie earlier
09:05 BB But since Michael mentioned an active Dwarf I am not sure anymore
09:05 Rich I didn't see a time for it, I'll recheck.
09:05 BB I didn't call it
09:06 Rich Nothing in the log yet for Depression.
09:08 BB Plume?
09:09 Rich Whether it was Depression or the Dwarfs it started at 09:02:47ie wc
09:09 BB Yes, I think Plume 09:08 ie
09:09 BB Was visible on the streaming
09:10 Rich I agree
09:10 BB Depression might also change its pattern now after Giantess... this is going to be interesting
09:13 BB I have some laundry to do, will be back later
09:13 Rich Bye BB

10:10 BB And Lion messed up all my pretty theories
10:11 Rich I'm trying to figure out if that is Riverside or not.
10:12 BB My first thought was yes, but of course I have no idea what I am talking about
10:12 Rich It went for about 10m then stopped and restarted.
10:13 Rich It looks to far left for Riverside.

14:04 Rich Grand/Turban/Vent is on the far left of the static cam view.
14:05 Ryan maybe grand trying to start?
14:05 Rich Allowing for wind drift, that could be Turban. 20 minutes should return. g

February 2nd, 2010

02:54 BB at work Visibility is not so good today for the overnight shift X-D
02:54 BB at work OF might have been at 01:43, but I am not completely sure
02:55 BB at work This is just a post in case some of the sleepless people wander in here looking for information g
02:56 BB at work Great, now I lost the connection to the cam :(
03:02 BB at work It looks like Beehive might have erupted at 02:23
03:02 BB at work I am not sure, of course, will try to post the captures later when I get home
03:38 BB at work OF was again ie at 03:14 so my last call was correct
04:40 BB at work OF 04:39 ie
06:41 cb Hi BB thanks for all your overnite times. Here is a moon rise/set illumination chart with times for optimum nighttime viewing pleasure. keeping cloud cover in mind.
06:42 cb for the Wy area
06:42 cb http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/astronomy.html?obj=moon&n=778
07:15 BB I uploaded the possible Beehive captures to my Picasa album
07:15 BB  
http://picasaweb.google.com/brieske24de/GeyserPict…
07:16 BB They are very dark, so anybody who wants to take a look, feel free to download them and lighten them in a picture editing software
07:18 BB Big steam in the general direction of Grand... unfortunately I have no idea which geyser is which there
07:25 guest124967 Slightly right of Grands position and very big. I wonder if it could be Giant.
07:26 BB Thanks for the info... I will wonder with you :)
07:27 guest124967 On second thoughts it may not be quite far enough to the right for Grand.
07:27 guest124967 The only other I could thing of is Oblong.
07:28 guest124967 I meant Giant, not grand sorry
07:28 BB I got that
07:28 BB We need one of the experts in here
07:28 BB I hope someone is reading the log
07:32 lc good morning
07:32 BB hi lc
07:32 BB So which geyser is it in the basin, what do you think?
07:32 lc I was reading the log, I'm not an expert but it looks like Oblong to me.
07:34 BB How do you tell Oblong and Grand apart? I haven't figured that out yet.
07:34 lc I would think Oblong would be biger, so it could be Turban and Vent.
07:35 guest124967 I can usually tell Grand when there's not too much steam in the way because you can see the water bursts
07:35 BB Can't find my geyser book, somebody took it away from the computer. brb, have to find it
07:36 lc if there is wind it is hard to tell, but without wind you can see spikes from Grand.
07:37 lc and Oblond would be wider.
07:37 lc just my thoughts.
07:38 lc I have to go, going fishing.
07:38 lc have a good day.
07:39 BB bye lc
07:40 BB and thanks for the info
07:40 lc one more thing, if it goes more than about 6 minutes, its not Oblong.
07:40 BB Just found the book, will read about durations now
07:43 lc since this has been going more than 20 minutes, I'm going to guess it is Turban and Vent.
07:44 lc bye.
07:52 BB OF 07:52 ie
08:01 BB I will be back later. Bye, guest, thanks for the input.
08:01 guest124967 yw
08:30 Rich Hi guest124967
08:33 guest124967 Hi
08:36 Rich I believe that you can tell the difference between Oblong and Grand by timing.
08:37 guest124967 I'm reletively new at this geyser game so I'm still learning
08:37 Rich Oblong stops about 6 minutes, where Grand will either pause at ~8m and then a second burst or continue if it is a one burster.
08:42 Rich Interval on Grand is from 4 1/2 h - 6 h, I think. Turban cycle as mentioned before about every 20m.
08:43 Rich Hopefully more knowledgeable folks will correct me. g
08:43 Rich Probably Turban now.

08:58 Rich Hi guest270014

09:19 Kent Good morning Rich
09:20 Rich Hi Kent
09:21 sparekitty kinda gray today, eh guys?
09:21 Rich Feb 02, 2010 recap Beehive ?02:23, OF ?01:43, 03:14, 04:39ie, 07:52ie, 08:58:48ie,
09:22 Rich Hi sparekitty
09:22 Rich The day started better. g
09:24 Kent Morning sparekitty. There was earlu sun on Parking Lot, but it is gone now. We need a series of really big storms in the park.
09:24 Kent early
09:25 Kent That would be a short interval on Beehive?
09:28 sparekitty thanks for the info, guys; the boss came in and i had to work, dangit!
09:28 Rich Beehive - Date, Time, Interval 01/28/10 08:45:00 01/29/10 02:22:00 17:37 01/30/10 00:25:00 22:03 01/31/10 17:20:00 44:55 02/01/10 13:13:35 20:53 02/02/10 02:23:00 13:10
09:28 guest124967 Damn inconsiderate of your boss LOL
09:29 sparekitty lol
09:32 Rich Hi guest124967
09:32 Kent Rich, I think you interval on the 01/31 Beehive may be a little long?
09:34 Rich ty, looks like my finger stuck on the 4
09:34 Rich Beehive - Date, Time, Interval 01/28/10 08:45:00 01/29/10 02:22:00 17:37 01/30/10 00:25:00 22:03 01/31/10 17:20:00 40:55 02/01/10 13:13:35 20:53 02/02/10 02:23:00 13:10
09:36 Kent I'm hoping it turns out to be a double interval
09:39 Rich I sure am anxious to see the Beehive data logger output.
09:42 Rich Hi BB
09:42 BB Hi, Kent, Rich and sparekitty
09:42 BB Did you look at the possible BH captures?
09:42 BB I am not really sure it was BH, but it looked to me liked there was something going on
09:43 BB My husband agreed, but he couldn't probably call BH by daylight lol
09:44 Rich g
09:48 BB I have to go and iron a few shirts, bbl
09:48 Rich later
09:48 Rich bye
09:56 Kent BB, I looked and can't tell. It looks possible but I will wait until the real gazers weigh in. A short interval like that would be neat.
10:13 guest124967 Is that Penta on the streaming cam now?
10:15 Rich Sorry, I'm viewing the static cam.
10:29 sparekitty so have we ever decided on what that small vent to the right of OF is??
10:29 Rich Hi guest204004
10:30 guest124967 Scott B said that vent has always been there.
10:30 Rich How far away?
10:31 guest124967 On Old Faithfuls mound
10:31 sparekitty i agree it's always been there, i'm just wondering if it has a name...and rich, it's just a bit to the right...not very far. i'm not good with distances....
10:31 Rich ty
10:32 guest124967 The big debate is wether it has ever spouted real water
10:32 sparekitty don't know...it's most noticeable when it's cold (no surprise) but i can't say for certain i've ever seen it send up "real water."
10:33 Rich OF ie 10:32:49 wc

12:24 BdM standby He / she left!
12:26 Rich Hi BB
12:26 BB hi Rich
12:27 BB Rich, I think you'd better not put the maybe BH in the recap unless someone who really know confirms
12:27 BB I might be completely wrong about that
12:27 BB Just didn't want it to be overlooked
12:27 BB And I guess, after Giantess, everything is possible
12:28 BB I would put the interval at what - 13 hours?
12:29 BB Who knows... but I will definitely be checking the GOSA data on that :)
12:29 Amr male cam hi
12:29 Amr male cam any cam avalaible here
12:30 Rich It wan't go in the geyserlist report unless it is confirmed. I will however leave it in our recaps so we can back check it when the data logger data is posted on GOSA.
12:30 Rich Only way I know to learn.
12:31 BB That's fine. Just don't put in on the list... I don't want it out there as long as it might just have been my imagination
12:31 BB which I have plenty of lol
12:31 Rich Sorry Amr.male.com this is an embedded chatroom in another site
12:31 Rich C2C and audio are not enabled.
12:32 Rich I just get started and ****.
12:32 BB and what? censored?
12:33 Rich No, they leave. g
12:33 BB He actually left before you started to explain
12:34 Rich I have so much more to 'offer'. g
12:34 Rich I still had my caldera speech and Mt. Toba to go.
12:35 BB Their attention span is just not long enough... you need shorter bits and pieces g
12:35 BB Bison! I wish I had paid attention to the streaming cam
12:36 BB Have no idea where we are looking at
12:36 Rich Two word answers?
12:36 Rich Location please?
12:36 BB Bison location? Still trying to figure that out.
12:36 Rich <Location of the streaming cam and/or the Bison. Please>
12:37 BB To the left of the static screen, I think
12:37 BB General direction of Grand
12:38 Rich I think I see them moving out in front of Split Cone.
12:38 Rich ty
12:38 BB I didn't take any screenshots during the last minutes but I think they came on screen around the last OF
12:38 BB Could see them moving in the captures
12:48 Rich First capture I have of Bison is 12:00:02 capture.
12:50 BB Sound about right
12:50 Rich I don't see any movement after 12:42:02, looks like they head off into the treeline behind Little Cub.
12:50 BB I am still trying to get the BH pictures light enough to see something... no luck so far
12:53 Rich Looks like Michael is getting snow in the UGB.
12:57 sparekitty so do we know what everybody is watching?
12:57 BB Bison
12:57 sparekitty thanks.
12:57 BB They are just not visible to us anymore, behind Split Cone
12:58 sparekitty i do love watching the bison.

11:34 Rich yw, ge
11:34 Rich I try and get one up between 11:00 and 13:00 and then one at the end of the day.
11:36 ge It helps for those of us who may have logged on but have to try to work
11:36 Rich Try, being the operative word. lol
11:36 ge yup
11:37 Rich Anyone can post a time, so if you see something you can id, post a time.
11:37 guest124967 Looks like Daisy
11:39 Rich I'm not much help with streaming cam views, I'm on dial up and bandwidth prevents me from seeing the streaming cam.
11:39 guest124967 I think it is Daisy
11:40 Rich There is a reference photo for the streaming cam (a work in progress) on the rescource page http://donsplace.orgfree.com/ofcc2/
11:40 guest124967 Behind trees halfway between Castle and Grand via cam
11:42 Rich Oblong? to the right of Grand on the static cam
11:43 guest124967 I saw that but the streaming cam has moved to another geyser now
11:44 Rich I have to venture out one more time.
11:45 Rich bbl
11:45 Rich bye
12:11 Kent Plume 1208 wc. At least 5 and possibly 6 bursts.
12:14 Kent OF 12:11 wc. Nice it allowed Plume to go first.
12:22 sparekitty indicator!~~
12:22 sparekitty 12:22 indicator IE
12:25 Rich What is going off behind OF on static
12:25 Rich Anyone?
12:26 sparekitty can't tell
12:26 Rich Spume?
12:26 Rich Too far back for Plume
12:27 Rich My usual luck it will be OF steam. g
12:33 sparekitty BH 12:32
12:36 Rich Lion 12:35:40ns
12:38 Rich I'd say my luck was normal, I think it was OF steam, just laying down low and spring up someplace unusual.
12:41 Rich I don't know where I am, but that was Beehive at 12:35:40ns
12:41 Rich Not a good day for me. g
12:42 Rich Hi Kent
12:42 Rich hi rhbm
12:43 RHBM Hi, y'all
12:43 RHBM Waht are we watching on streaming cam?
12:43 Kent Hi Rich. Went to lunch and missed Beehive. Teach me.
12:43 Rich sorry, I wasn't paying close attention and didn't get Beehive sent out.
12:43 Rich I looked at it and called it Lion.
12:43 Rich lol
12:44 sparekitty i was paying REALLY close attention and took the 12:32 from the cam timer.
12:44 Rich I just got back from the mechanic, again. Probably a fuel injector problem. yuk
12:44 sparekitty that's hwy you called lion...
12:45 Rich lol
12:45 sparekitty i thought i just missed it.
12:45 RHBM What's the next OF prediction?
12:45 Rich I NEED food and a winning lotto ticket.
12:46 RHBM Get in line!
12:46 Rich VC hasn't changed prediction time.
12:46 RHBM Asleep at the wheel.
12:46 Rich was for 12:06, but that has past.
12:46 Rich I think so, or I wish so. g
12:47 Rich Suffering from white out.
12:48 Rich I'll see if I can put together a semi correct recap. g
12:48 Rich If OF went around 12:06 it will either be 13:00 or 13:30ish for the next one.
12:50 RHBM Hmmmm, I've got some work to do, so I guess I'd better get to it now. Later!
12:50 Rich sparekitty, I didn't see your post for BH, one of the times I lost connection to the room. Didn't see it till I refreshed the log view.
12:50 Rich Once again into the breech. Bye RHBM.
12:50 Rich I only got a few captures before Beehive, and I really don't see any real indicator steam.
12:51 Rich I guess I shouldn't watch OF webcams while driving. g

16:10 Rich Is little Squirt this side or Giantess side of the BW?

16:11 Graham hard to tell woth it hiding behind the tree
16:55 kcmule hi all. sorry im in lurk mode today. busy at work, the cam is my mini-stress break
16:55 Graham nice to have it to watch
16:55 Graham always reduces my stress too..unless its not working
16:56 kcmule ive had buffering issues lately, but it could be something on my corporate network 'cause it looks fine when im at home
17:00 kcmule about 10 years ago i wrote to every park official i could find asking for an UGB webcam, so i like to think i had a little part in bringing it to fruition
17:02 Graham well good for you, thank you
17:03 kcmule i missed the 9 year interval eruption of steamboat in may 2000 by about 3 hours (my 1st park visit), but just getting seeing the steam phase was enough to give me they geyser bug :D
17:03 Graham OF 1702
17:04 Graham yeah I have seen steam phase, was in the park when it erupted one night
17:04 Graham went up about 12 hours later and it was quite impressive

17:27 Mario hi all
17:27 Ryan Ok im still working on this geyser simulator (you can walk on the boardwalk, geysers are on intervals,you can here the gazers calling the times and the last update will be multiplayer) THIS IS SO HARD! Fun... BUT IT TURNS MY MIND TO MUSH! lol
17:27 Rich Hi guest109679
17:28 Rich lol
17:29 Mario you're creating a geyser video game?
17:30 Ryan Kinda, more like a simulator, but i can give you points for calling geysers if you want ;) hopefully a VERY basic version will be done by next week.../
17:30 Mario cool
17:31 Ryan ty The basic version will only be geyser hill and OF and you can only walk on Geyserhill its more of a test version to get geyser timing down. The geyser eruption plumes are actually kinda realistic, ill post screen shots as it develops to FB
17:31 Mario Has anyone skiied out to Shoshone this winter?
17:34 guy hey im 15m and i have cam.

February 4th, 2010

01:35 M.thief Morning all,
01:40 M.thief Has anyone see Plate after Giantess
05:54 Michael Haven't seen it reported. Plate can be surprisingly hard to see because of the steaming spring in front of it. The same way that Depression gets harder to call when the large Dwarf is active.
06:47 cb possible OF at 647 per low light static image
06:48 cb ie
06:48 BB hi cb
06:48 BB yes, you are right, definitely OF
06:49 cb Hi BB
06:50 BB Oh, I thought you were gone again. By the time I had checked my screenshots you were nowhere to be seen
06:51 cb yeah I keep having to refresh the static image for some reason
06:51 BB I had trouble with the static cam all day yesterday. Was stuck most of the time
06:51 BB Well, at least as long as I was on
06:52 cb I get the white frame w a little red X inthe left hand corner
06:53 BB Same problem I had yesterday. Sometimes I get the same frame for a few minutes but I couldn't get anything yesterday for long periods of time
06:53 BB Today it seems to be working better for me
06:53 cb fingers crossed
06:55 cb back in a bit,
06:55 BB see you
07:59 cb Hi all
07:59 LS Hi to you.
08:21 LS Is that BHI?
08:21 BB That's why I came in... was wondering on the steam around BH
08:21 BB It's been there for a few minutes
08:22 BB First capture I have is 08:15
08:23 BB Good timing, OF :) Now we can't see anything
08:23 LS OF 08:22ie
08:26 LS Beehive 08:25ns
08:28 cb Off to work...see ya all this afternoon
08:29 BB bye cb
09:00 M.thief Morning, yes, I guess the Dwarfs could cover Depression, so, is that Depression now?
09:00 Rich Hi M.thief
09:00 Rich Hi guest821368
09:01 Rich Hi guest892293
09:01 M.thief hmmm, I guess was that depression is the better question
09:02 Rich Beehive - Date, Time, Interval 01/30/10 00:25:00 22:03 01/31/10 17:20:00 40:55 02/01/10 13:13:35 20:53 02/02/10 02:23:00 13:10 02/02/10 13:38:31 11:15 02/03/10 12:32:00 22:54 02/04/10 08:25:00 19:53
09:03 Rich I just got logged on
09:04 Rich I not able to tell the difference between Depression and Dwarfs. g
09:04 M.thief So, it looks like post-giantess Beehive did shorten up at least somewhat. Great~
09:05 M.thief I wondered. Depression isn't that big and most of eruption stays in the crater after the first few bursts
09:06 Rich It appears that Beehive has been having shorter and shorter intervals since October. Ralph's data should be out anytime.
09:06 M.thief I've been checking for it. I guess we'll also get a Fountain download soon.
09:08 Rich From what he said on the geyserlistserv, i think the downloads have been done, but the end of year analysis takes a lot of time, so he was working on both data sets.
09:08 Rich Hi 124967
09:08 Rich wb
09:08 124967 Hi
09:09 Rich I have Beehive data collected from the chatroom, but it is difficult to really analysis it due to missed eruptions.
09:10 Rich Hi guest124967
09:11 guest124967 Do you have auto HI enabled? :-)
09:11 Rich lol
09:12 Rich I try and greet everyone that comes in the room, always nice to have a hello.
09:13 guest124967 Appreciated :-)
09:13 Rich ty
09:13 Rich Hi sparekitty
09:13 sparekitty good morning, everyone!

09:13 Rich lol
09:14 sparekitty oh well. but thanks for letting me know it's safe to go to lunch today.
09:15 Rich I think Loisb got a capture of BH, so she will probably upload to FB.
09:16 Rich Lois says that BB posted BH to FB.
09:16 M.thief Bye all, off to pretend to work
09:16 sparekitty cool, then i can check it out later.
09:16 Rich me too. g

09:57 Rich Static cam is frozen for me at 09:54:19
09:59 Rich I am not sure of my Grand call, now.
10:02 Rich I did see a coyote at the benches when I first logged on this morning.
10:02 Rich Didn't get a capture tho.
10:08 Rich Wish Bruce or Graham was here.
10:09 Rich Guess I will just sit back an enjoy the show.
10:10 sparekitty sorry rich, i'm just an empty vessel when it comes to geyser knowledge!
10:10 sparekitty i know beehive, plume, of and maybe depression.
10:13 Rich There have just been to many eruptions around Grand, I can't tell what's happening. g
10:14 BB Rich, I never saw the coyote this morning, but Lois asked me about it, and it turns out I have a capture
10:14 BB I posted it on Lois's wall
10:14 Rich Thank you bb
10:14 BB Now back to the kitchen, I am in the middle of cooking dinner
10:15 Rich ty bye
10:18 Rich Throw in Riverside and that's about what I 'might' be able to id. g
10:28 Rich Hi justin_boy
11:01 guest124967 I was doing some chores, did I miss anything?
11:02 Rich Nothing for quite a while, after what I thought was Grand there were 2 more eruptions in the area, one might have been Oblong, but both of them lasted over 6 min I think.
11:03 Rich I was getting very 'confused'. g
11:03 guest124967 I saw Grand, then I had to leave my desk for a while
11:03 Rich Coming up on an OF in another 15m.

08:51 Rich Hi sparekitty
08:51 sparekitty hey rich! i like your new title...room receptionist!
08:51 Rich Then there is always "Open the dorr, Richard" from days gone by.
08:53 sparekitty i had to google it...not something i'm familiar with.
08:56 Rich It comes from before my 'time', but I lived with people saying it to me in my childhood. Can't remember if it came from a song or just a saying. I'll see what I can find.
08:56 Rich and it is door. Moose-itis. g
08:56 Rich Lion?
08:57 Rich Lion 08:56:18ie
09:02 Rich Depression?
09:15 Rich wb lc
09:16 lc Rich, I didn't see the Depression? but that would be a 1 hour interval.
09:16 Rich k
09:17 Rich I think I see bison moving out by Giantess moving to left. Now behind OF.
09:17 lc I'm not saying it wasn't, just calling your attention to it.
09:17 Rich Hi kcmule
09:18 Rich np, I'm not sure of Depression/Dwarfs.
09:18 Rich I need more 'hands' on learning. g
09:18 kcmule good morning
09:18 kcmule is that castle back there?
09:19 Rich Bison now over toward Lion
09:19 Rich Crossing the bw
09:19 sparekitty how can you tell??
09:19 Rich Hi guest821368
09:20 Rich Black spots move from frame to frame
09:20 Rich They called me on their cellphones and reported 'herd' movement. g
09:20 Rich OF ie 09:20:24 wc
09:21 Rich Looks like the
09:21 Rich Bison are down slope from Depression now.
09:22 Rich What is even more fun is 'bear' hunting. Only one black spot moves. g
09:22 Rich Static cam froze at 09:20:24 for me. Bet next refresh the prediction time has changed.
09:23 Rich I lost.
09:24 Rich Grand/Oblong
09:41 Rich ?Grand ie 09:22:48 2bursts wc
09:43 Rich I think the second burst happened around 09:30
09:48 Rich Bison arrived 08:54:17 from the treeline to the right of Giantess, and moved behind Gieantes, crossed the BW around Marmot Caves and then downslope behind Depression.
09:49 Rich Hi guest27651
09:51 Rich The Bison appear to stil be in the basin moving from behind the small clump of trees to the left behind Split Cone's hill.
09:59 Rich The bison are still down in the meadow
10:03 Rich HI guest2943577
10:03 Rich Hi guest87227

10:13 RHBM are we watching BHI on streaming cam?
10:14 RHBM nope

10:15 RHBM lucky dogs.
10:15 Rich I still see a few Bison
10:17 Rich RHBM, I haven't noticed any activity at BHI or BH.
10:19 Rich Bison still there.
10:19 RHBM I realized that rich after the cam panned back out. And i love those bison! need my bison fix.
10:19 RHBM wish i could hear them
10:19 RHBM who has the cam today?
10:20 Rich When I was there in Oct, Bruce and I stopped and watch a VERY large herd just South of Mary Road
10:20 Rich The Lookout to the west. Bison from the road all the way over the far hills.
10:21 RHBM they totally rock.
10:21 Rich I tried to get video, still have to down load it.
10:21 Rich Bulls were making all kinds of racket, but the 'visitors' were talking about Buffalo guns. so I don't know how much sound I got.
10:23 RHBM I always wish the folks who gripe the most get their cars rammed. Don't tell the boss i think that!!!!!:'D
10:23 Rich g
10:24 RHBM i've gt sooooo much to do today--i'd better get going. Later!

12:18 Rich Yeah!!!
12:19 Graham started about 11 here but its been above freezing. now its around freezing
12:19 Graham fortunately I have enough hours in this week to leave early
12:20 Graham thanks for the recap Rich
12:22 Rich yw
12:22 Rich I think I missed the last Lion.
12:23 Graham how much are you supposed to get Ryan?
12:23 Graham were you napping Rich?
12:26 Ryan 7-10only
12:26 Graham hardly worth getting a day off school for that
12:27 Ryan rich that was a very questionable oblong, i saw steam but not much i forgot to tell u to scratch that off
12:27 Ryan we didnt graham we had a two hr early dissmissal
12:28 Ryan spume 1227
12:28 Rich consider it done, Ryan
12:28 Graham they closed the scholls here all day even tho its only just sticking
12:29 Graham you can tell i failed spelling
12:33 Rich I've been working on getting the eruption times into files similar in lay out to the GOSA, to make it easier for us to check our times.
12:35 Graham k, thats good
12:35 Graham OF 1235
12:36 Ryan nice!
12:37 Ryan no beehive today? soon i hope
12:38 Rich Hi guest919022
12:42 Ryan wow nce red dwarf now
12:43 Graham i wish the dwarfs would stop so we can tell what Depression is doing
12:44 Ryan g
12:44 Ryan it stopped! :O
12:45 Ryan quick graham wish for giant giantess anything!
12:45 Graham i am wishing for snow, lots of it
12:46 Rich I just did a comparison of our observed times and Logger times from GOSA for Beehive for 01/01/10 - 01/13/10, compares well.
12:47 Rich Usually within a minute
12:48 Rich If off at all.
12:48 Graham yeah thats an obvious one
12:48 Graham Oblong and Aurum maybe not so easy
12:51 Rich But for ie observations that isn't to bad. the 4th is the only day more than a minute off. And ours was several minutes late.
12:51 Graham yeah well thats ok for an ie
12:53 Rich 01/01/2010 Aurum ?13:1301/03/2010 Aurum 14:11ie01/03/2010 Aurum ?10:46ie01/05/2010 Aurum 17:05ie01/14/2010 Aurum 17:28ie01/16/2010 Aurum 15:0701/17/2010 Aurum 16:09:52ie01/17/2010 Aurum ?09:06:3701/26/2010 Aurum ?15:06ie01/30/2010 Aurum ?17:37ie

16:50 Graham yeah, 20-30" is what they keep saying
16:50 Graham and its a wet snow
16:50 vw that is a lot of snow!
16:50 vw we have about 12 inches on the ground, but it has been accumulating for weeks.
16:51 Graham we could set a record for one snowfall and the whole winter tonight
16:51 Graham we usually get 15" a year
16:51 vw yikes!

February 6th, 2010

06:56 Graham people on the BW at 0655, early birds
07:02 BB hi Graham
07:02 Graham hi
07:03 BB So how much snow did you get?
07:05 Graham about 14"
07:05 BB That is quite a lot. So you have to dig out your car again?
07:06 Graham yes and its still snowing
07:06 Graham I put a few pics on FB
07:07 Graham not as much as they predicede last night because it switched to sleet for a while
07:07 Graham supposed to get another 4-8" today...and then maybe more on Tuesday
07:08 BB For some reason, it doesn't show up on the news page on FB
07:08 BB But I went to your profile and found it there
07:09 Graham i don't know what FB is doing, sometimes the pages are way mixed up in that view
07:09 BB I think they are redesigning everything... to confuse people like me.
07:10 BB It took me some time to figure out where the put the logout button.
07:10 Graham Blizzard pics:
07:10 Graham http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2027404&id=1470722670&l=d883248d11
07:11 Graham I also put about 100 pics from the Jan trip on FB too: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2027005&id=1470722670&l=1430d3b472
07:11 BB That was before the changes, I already looked at some of them.
07:11 BB They did show up when I logged on.
07:13 Graham so right now theres more snow at OF than here but we are working on it
07:13 Graham has all your snow gone now?
07:13 BB I wish!
07:13 BB It is still freezing, all the snow still there, and more snow coming from time to time
07:14 BB And it is supposed to get even colder, so I guess the snow will be around for a while
07:16 Graham yikes, thats no fun
07:16 Graham we got rid of all the December snow, then had more on Saturday and Tuesday this week which was still around. Now this and maybe more on Tuesday
07:17 Graham we could set an all time winter record for snow this year
07:17 Michael Good Morning (afternoon BB).
07:17 BB hi Michael
07:18 vw good morning all.
07:18 BB hi vw
07:18 vw and afternoon to you BB!
07:18 Michael Is this the first OF of the day coming up?
07:19 Michael Not counting the ones we didn't see...
07:19 vw :D
07:19 Graham OF 0719
07:20 cb wow..morning all
07:20 vw Hi cb!
07:20 BB hi cb
07:20 Graham morning
07:21 vw how many inches so far G?
07:22 cb you buried in snow this am g?
07:22 vw after I logged off here last night I checked some cams in the WDC area. It was really coming down.
07:23 Graham a5 I think and still going strong
07:23 Graham the ploughs are out there, then I will get out and shovel. anyone want to help?
07:23 Graham thats 15" so far
07:23 Graham nice its at the weekend tho
07:24 cb just sent bill off to the hwy. snow in the sierras...suppose to be a doosy
07:24 vw I could send my 16 yo?
07:25 vw need more coffee. thought cb said she sent bill off the highway. hehehehehe
07:26 cb lol
07:27 cb chain control is up on Hwy 50. this is like a holiday weekend for him...Super Bowl sunday in Tahoe is a BIG deal
07:27 Graham haha. vw - I put some pics on FB from Jan
07:27 vw G - about the only time I get to FB is when you post pictures! going now.
07:28 Graham k
07:31 vw running commentary - great oblong shot. the shades white to black are striking
07:32 Graham bubblers are going
07:33 Graham yeah I liked the mood on that one
07:33 vw this is too weird. didnt realize how much i missed seeing Grotto until I looked at your picture!
07:33 vw depend on me to find the darker mood G!
07:36 vw CC needs to see the Bison staring at someone. Be prepared for questions!
07:37 Graham hehe I took lots of Bison pictures this trip
07:38 Graham Grotto can look good in winter if you can see the droplets and their steam trails.
07:38 vw there were a lot of Bison to take!
07:38 vw I like your shot of Tardy. Love the spray patterns.
07:38 Graham and someone kept making sure I took pictures of them
07:38 Graham some small geysers look good with the extra winter steam. summer they can be too hard to photo
07:41 cb LOVE the shots of the falls G!!!!!! and the bison staring at you... LOL and, and , and, you take wonderful pic....love the colors you capture
07:41 cb back to looking at pics brb
07:41 BB The staring bison is the best! And I found the shot of the guy getting the snow of the roof very impressive.
07:42 BB Wouldn't want to do that job.
07:44 vw BB, that was so fun to watch that guy! he had snow removal down to a science. My 16 yo now wants a saw to do our sidewalks. :D
07:44 Graham yeah he has done it for many years
07:44 BB vw - I bet X-D
07:44 Graham very skilled. i wonder how many times he has fallen off?
07:44 vw Great pictures G. I knew we could depend on you!
07:45 cb great pic of N Goggles
07:46 cb Now I really want to go in the winter
07:46 Michael Terrific album, Graham! Just realized I should have written down where my favorites were so I don't have to hunt for them next time...
07:47 vw #95 of Depression is cool. know you couldnt have taken that at the end of your vacation: too much light!
07:48 cb yes that one of depression is nice...no steam, nice shape to the water, and is glistening!!!
07:49 Graham actually except for N Goggles, they are in chronological order, so it was just a hint of sun at the end of my trip
07:49 Graham I took lots of Depression and Aurum pictures
07:50 vw wow! i thought you had thick clouds the last two days! I know know Friday was a dark and low sky!
07:50 vw The evil me loves the one of the photographers at Aurum. Of course I would never say anything like that in public.
07:50 vw oops. guess i just did/
07:51 Graham it was on the Friday afternoon
07:51 Graham every now and then there would be a gap in the snow
07:51 vw you saw sky on Friday??? wow!
07:52 Graham yeah still pretty much full cloud cover tho
07:52 vw There was another Depression earlier that was great too: different colors in the pools with splashes connecting. Like Michael wish I had noted the number.
07:53 Graham Aurum 0752
07:53 Graham looked like a big enough steam cloud for Aurum anyway
07:54 BB Plume on the static?
07:54 Graham yes 0754
07:55 vw thanks BB and G, was wondering same
07:59 cb bye all
07:59 BB bye cb

09:06 Rich ty BB
09:07 Graham quick survey outside.....shoveling this heavy wet snow is not going to be fun
09:10 Rich Wonder where I was, off reading email I guess. g
09:21 Rich hi cb
09:23 cb hi rich
09:25 cb going to leave pg open while I get household stuff done..
09:29 Rich Hi guest324379
09:31 Kent Good morning Rich
09:31 Rich Hi Kent
09:31 vw good morning Kent
09:32 Rich I found the lyrics to "Open the Door, Richard"
http://www.alsimmons.com/lyrics/cl_openthedoor.htm…
09:32 Kent Hi vw. You got snow?
09:32 vw just a skiff of new stuff. would just blow off if I drove the car.
09:35 Graham you mean like this? http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30480476&l=27c4284d07&id=1470722670
09:36 Graham I am just hoping it all blows onto my neighbors car
09:39 vw Not nearly that much G!
09:40 Graham I don't think I would be able to drive fast enough right now tto clear it off
09:41 vw I am guessing your streets are too icy to drive very fast at all. Probably just get MORE ice and snow on your car anyway.
09:42 Graham theres rutted deep heavy snow on the roads now
09:42 vw you said the plows are out? Hope they can clear the ruts before they harden
09:44 Graham they will be working hard today and tomorrow. should be able to get out tomorrow pm or Monday
09:44 Kent Graham, great shots on Facebook. You have a talent for compostion.
09:45 Graham thanks
09:46 Graham digital makes it easy too, can crop out the distracting stoff at the edges too
09:48 Rich Hi Michael
09:48 Michael Hi Rich.
09:51 vw Like cb, leaving window open as I get some things done. Doubt I will be as successful as cb, but at least worth trying.
10:06 Rich 2 burst Plume 10:05:16 ie
10:06 Rich Hi kcmule
10:07 kcmule mornin
10:20 vw OF 10:20 ue
10:20 vw oops. ie
10:21 kcmule it started at 10:20
10:22 vw thank you kc. was just walking past, and saw it already fully up.
10:23 kcmule np
10:36 Michael Depression could go at any minute now if it wants.
10:36 vw kc, did you happen to notice if that OF was a long or a short?
10:36 kcmule i didnt :(
10:37 Michael VC prediction (11:49) is based on a long.
10:37 Rich VC predicts 11:49 next OF
10:37 vw guess we will find out in 45-75 minutes! ;)
10:38 Rich Hi CC
10:38 vw oh, they hadnt been updating prediction time before now so didnt think to look there.
10:38 vw hi CC.
10:40 Rich <Bye CC>
10:42 Graham shoveling round 1 complete
10:42 Michael Well done. What were the objectives of Round 1?
10:43 vw but do you have a saw for the accumulation on the roof?
10:43 Graham haha no, but there was quite an accumulation on the roof of my car
10:44 Graham cleared all but behind my car since I hope the plow will come back and shift some of it waway for me
10:44 vw here the snowplow would just spray it back onto your car
10:45 Graham whats the betting my neighbor will go out and dump all the snow from the roof of their car right where I have just cleared between them?
10:45 Graham they did a good job last time not to pile it up behind the vehicles and my car is on the upslope side, so if the do pile it up its usually on the other side of the parking lot
10:48 vw That is a big group of people otu there!
10:49 Graham maybe same one on the OF BW an hour or two ago?
10:53 Graham now its time to to god pick out pictures for the Sput DVD...
10:53 Graham god = go and
10:54 guest124967 Sounds biblical
10:55 Graham I am not sure the Sput gets elevated to that level. Have to pick some out and then rename them so they can search them....a little tedious
11:00 Michael Depression 11:00ie
11:01 cb did I miss anything
11:01 cb lol

11:03 Graham could get Aurum in the next 20min
11:04 Graham could be hard to see with this wind
11:06 Michael We just have to convince the wind that it's time for Plume, so it shifts the other way.
11:06 Rich lol
11:07 Rich Hmmm?
11:07 Graham Plume 1106
11:13 Graham should be mid-window ish for Aurum if its still cooperating
11:14 Graham BH looks nice and splashy still
11:14 Michael What kind of intervals did it have when you were there?
11:15 Graham 3h22m +- 5m
11:15 Graham for 5 intervals
11:16 Graham Tara had one that I think was 5m longer
11:16 Graham watch it not erupt now .. haha
11:16 Michael Grand or Oblong is ie
11:17 Michael I think grand
11:19 Graham I see no water, think its Oblong just going strtaight up since theres no wind
11:20 Michael I'm starting to head in that direction. I thought it was Grand because the cloud went up so fast.
11:20 Michael OK. so Oblong 11:17 ie
11:21 Graham OF steam is annoyong
11:21 Rich My first capture was at 11:16:23ie

11:32 Graham missed that one
11:34 Rich My captures jump from 11:28:25 to 11:29:25
11:34 Michael Did they show anything? I missed those ones.
11:36 Rich my 11:28:25 just has OF steam covering Geyser Hill and 11:29:25 OF is less and only on column of steam from the Vault side.
11:37 Michael Oh well. I can't make a geyser call based on what I saw.
11:39 Rich Indicator?
11:39 Rich Or jsut snow?
11:39 Graham not ind
11:39 Rich ty
11:40 Kent Graham, good shot with both Indicator and Close To Cone. I liked it
11:41 Kent Facebook, not now.
11:41 Graham thanks, c2c was quite active. Only one BH in good light tho, the other I saw close up was not very good conditions
11:42 Graham may be going now based on steam
11:42 Graham just c2c, so dont get excited
11:44 Graham Ralphs data had Aurum 3h01m - 4h55m in the first two weeks of Jan

11:44 Graham you wabt Giantess?
11:45 vw That would be nice too!
11:45 vw but I don't know if it will take me that long to eat my lunch. :)
11:45 vw just looking for something with a duration of 10-15 minutes!
11:46 Rich Michael http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2027954&id=1427016656&l=0976619842
11:46 Graham now if you said 5, I could have done BH
11:46 Kent OF is due while we wait
11:47 vw but start of Indicator to end of Beehive could fit nicely into my timeframe.
11:48 Graham hum, ind would be a good 10-15 duration yes
11:48 Graham BH start about 12 min after Ind
11:48 Michael Thanks Rich. Not much to see there.
11:49 Rich Steam. g

February 7th, 2010

06:49 BB hi Graham
06:49 Graham morning
06:53 Graham how are you today?
06:54 BB fine, thanks... been checking GOSA data and comparing them to my screenshots all morning
06:54 BB I actually figured out where Plate is on the static cam
06:54 BB Had one eruption captured in December
06:54 Graham ah. how are you doing with those so far?
06:55 BB And I figured out that Plume is really difficult to see with OF steam all over the place in most captures
06:55 Graham ok, its not easy to see
06:56 Graham Plume is hard yes, I usually look to see if I can pick out the BW and steam coming from behind it
06:56 Graham or hope the wind is blowing right
06:56 BB But it has been fun... didn't even finish December yet. Too many screenshots, I guess. My husband asked last week if we needed too buy an external drive for all my pictures :)+
06:56 Graham 7 weeks to Cherry Blossoms, spring is coming
06:56 BB Not yet *g*
06:57 Graham haha...will you take a lot of pics in the park?
06:57 BB Maybe... I always plan to but when I get too excited I usually forget
06:58 Graham I usually take about 100-150 a day
06:58 BB My husband is the photographer in the family. He has been taking slides for ages and hasn't arrived in the digital era yet... so it will be up to me and my son
06:59 Graham it took me a while to switch to digital but there are a lot of good digital SLRs now
07:00 BB He was very much into photography about 20 years ago... developed his films and made the prints himself... so I guess he is missing that fun these days
07:02 BB Graham, is it possible to see Little Squirt erupting on the static cam?
07:03 Graham yes you can see it coming up from behind the big trees to the right of Anemone
07:03 BB Thanks. I haven't found a capture yet but will go on looking then.
07:03 Graham sometimes hard to tell with snow on Geyser Hill
07:04 Graham look for steam coming from the left big tree
07:04 BB ok, thanks
07:04 Graham it would be right below Giantess steam now
07:14 Ryan Morning Graham
07:14 Ryan Morning BB
07:14 BB hi Ryan
07:15 Ryan how r u bb?
07:16 BB fine, and you? Still lot's of snow around your place?
07:16 Graham morning. I am headed out to take some photos and go to the store..bbl
07:17 BB bye Graham
07:17 Graham Depression 0717ie?
07:17 BB yes, looks like it
07:17 BB Although I am a little confused by that Dwarf thing these days
07:18 Ryan ALOT of snow BB
07:19 BB And is it going to stay around? We still have December's snow here under January's and February's. Very cold in Berlin this year and supposed to stay like that for at least another week.
07:20 Ryan yes it will snow for another three days!
07:33 Ryan no school tomorrow
07:33 BB Because of the snow? Now that's good news :)
07:34 Ryan yes! and the fact that 98% of our district is powerless too
07:35 BB Ahh... fortunately we don't have that here, all power lines underground.
07:40 vw Good morning. Kind of hard to see anything this am!
07:40 BB hi vw
07:40 BB very steamy/foggy
07:40 vw good afternoon to you BB!
07:42 vw Thought I would stop in and see what the weather is like in the basin. See still no new snow. :(
07:43 BB No, that went everywhere else... East Coast, Germany...
07:44 vw We got a little bit more snow slightly north and east of the Park.
07:44 vw Lots of steam out of the ground around OF
07:58 vw It seems as though the steam is getting thicker. I am not even sure we will be able to see OF. Guess I will go try to get some work done. Back later! Bye.
07:58 BB bye vw
08:00 cb morning all
08:01 BB hi cb

08:45 Rich wb cb
08:45 cb hi rich
08:53 Rich Hi Kent
08:59 Kent Good morning Rich
09:10 Rich Am I corrrect in assuming that snow is overtaking the Basin?
09:12 Graham not more snow!
09:13 cb did you get more overnite?
09:14 Graham no. it stopped about 5pm
09:14 Graham not expecting any for 2 whole days
09:15 cb woo hoo LOL
09:15 cb I bet its pretty out though
09:15 Graham then we should get more, taking us to the second snowiest winter on record
09:15 Rich The news says that DC is supposed to be cleaned up by Game time. g
09:15 Graham yes it is, just got back from photos and shoveling
09:16 Graham well the major roads are clear. they plowed in my neighborhood. we have a 1 lane mogul run to get out
09:16 Rich Did we just have a Lion?
09:16 cb got your car shoveled out
09:16 Rich in the Mist? g
09:16 Graham yeah I can get my car out now. glad I did some yesterday too.
09:17 cb great.
09:17 Graham waiting for the plows to come back and then will probably have to shovel again
09:17 cb not sure about Lion r
09:17 BB Rich, not that I can see much in my captures, but I think the steam came from the Depression or Little Cub area
09:17 BB Didn't look like Lion to me
09:17 Graham I am sure the schools will be closed tomorrow and Govt on unscheduled leave iso that helps traffic
09:18 cb me neither
09:18 Rich I just saw a hint of steam, wasn't sure
09:18 Graham i don't want to use vacation time on a snow day
09:18 BB There WAS steam, just can't tell where it came from
09:18 Rich ty BB
09:21 Graham bit early for Depression it was 0717ie
09:22 BB I didn't mean Depression was i.e. I just thought the Lion came from somewhere left of Lion
09:22 BB the steam
09:22 BB no way to tell
09:33 Graham oh great, now the forecast is for snow both Tuesday and Wednesday....yeah!
09:42 Graham OF 0942ie

10:00 guest6791248 any girls
10:03 Rich Hi guest396319
10:03 Rich Hi guest6791248
10:04 Graham Depression 1004ie
10:06 Graham thats about right interval for Depression, yesterday was 2.5-3h
10:06 Rich Hi guest24109
10:10 Kent Great shopping carts :^)
10:10 Graham thanks Kent - there didn't seem to be much demand for them this morning
10:14 Graham I am guessing its rather icy at BH
10:17 Rich Hi guest109679
10:19 Rich Hi CC
10:19 Graham a little different at BH this year, theres a break in the ice there by the benches where the people were having trouble. I wonder if it was due to heat from Giantess runoff or something else. It was very slipery there the first couple of days of my trip
10:19 Graham bye CC
10:20 Rich Where is Giantess' run off channel?
10:29 Graham I don't really know
10:30 Graham need to go and check...brb
10:33 Rich I'm thinking it runs pretty much straight down to the Firehole. I seem to remember a large run off area when walking from Anemone to the path down to the bridge.
10:40 Graham i think thats where most goes, I have heard about it running over plumes sensor (I think)
10:41 Rich ty
11:12 Rich Anemone?
11:13 Graham of the OF steamer
11:14 Rich ?
11:15 Graham I meant "or the.." - looks like its closer than Anemone
11:15 Rich ok, ty
11:16 Rich I've seen it several times, just never could tell the difference between it and Anemone.
11:22 Graham Maybe Aurum 1121 - that big white steam cloud behind OF. not sure tho. watch in 3h25+-10
11:24 Graham OF 1123
11:26 Rich ~~~
11:31 Rich Hi Derek
11:31 Derek Hi Rich
11:34 Derek Going for some tea Rich. I just popped in to hand the cam over the Graham. I'll try to get back later.
11:34 steve Just to confirm for us late risers, no Beehive so far? Any splashing if you can see through the fog?
11:35 Rich enjoy
11:35 Rich No BH yet
11:35 Rich seen anyway

12:38 Kent Excellent crowd. I guess everyone is not a Super Bowl fan?
12:40 Graham I recon iut will be pre-empted here for more snow coverage :)
12:41 Kent A good way to start a riot.
12:45 cb whats everyone doing for super bowl? we discussions snak options
12:46 Rich Looks like the steam is headed toward the cams.
12:47 Graham Depression 1246ie
13:02 Rich Nice little 'garden' of plumes at Giantess. g
13:04 Graham the OF steam is very white today
13:05 Rich Sunshine?
13:05 Graham Daisy 1305
13:06 Graham didnt realize it was that close. unusual wind direction today
13:08 Rich Hi guest2696294
13:08 Rich Hi ge
13:10 steve Hello all, I had to leave for a while. Has BH been splashing at all?
13:11 Graham not sure what that steam is from now
13:11 Graham have not seen splashes but the wind is blowing in a bad direction
13:12 steve ty
13:17 steve Graham, did you notice when you were in the park, was Little cub still about every hour?
13:18 Graham I didnt time it but it was frequent
13:19 Graham they need more snow for traction at BH
13:19 steve Second question, how was the path from morning glory to Biscut basin?
13:20 Graham it was good. well packed from Biscuit to Artemisia since its a narrow path
13:20 Graham some heavier walking postholing a bit by Artemisia and over the hill where it spreads out

13:21 Graham of course I didnt do it on the last couple of days when it snowed a lot, I didnt go beyond Grand except the one walk down to find out F&M had erupted
13:22 steve Thanks rich, I did check ralphs download but I was also wondering if giantess changed little cub
13:23 Rich ~~~
13:25 steve Rich, Im lost, what does that mean? Im kinda green here
13:27 Rich Sorry steve, that is me just waving back at the visitors.
13:28 steve O, ty
13:28 Rich I was checking our chatroom log, but this month Little cub has only been reporte d once.
13:28 Rich I'm checking Jan now. '
13:30 steve I think few call it, when Im in the park I write them down, but never call little cub. ?tradition? ?bad habit?
13:30 Rich There werent' any log entries for Little Cub in Jan.
13:31 Rich I was interested in data for Pump/Plate to see if they were affected by Giantess.
13:32 steve Is there new Plate data up now?
13:33 Rich I haven't looked yet, I just was struck by the idea last week. g
13:34 Rich Checking GOSA now
13:34 steve I just checked, no eruptions in 2010 to date, in December there was a strong post giantess effect
13:35 Graham Plate probably erupted after Giantess this time too, not sure we were watching tho
13:35 steve Yes, I should have said the 2010 data was before this last giantess
13:36 Rich No current data for Plate. only 2009
13:36 Graham may not have erupted. when was the last in 2009?
13:37 Rich omp
13:37 steve the 2009 data is up to 12-31-09
13:38 Rich Plate 2009 12/25/09 18:19:46, 0:55:00, 0:01:0012/25/09 19:12:46, 0:53:00, 0:01:0012/27/09 02:01:46, 30:49:00, 0:04:0012/27/09 11:51:46, 9:50:00, 0:05:0012/28/09 14:09:46, 26:18:00, 0:05:0012/29/09 18:24:46, 28:15:00, 0:05:00
13:39 Rich Plate Date, Time, Interval, Duration
13:40 Graham Plume 1339
13:40 Graham yeah so it may not have had any eruptions in 2010 before they did the downloads on 1/13
13:41 Graham so none on 12/29, 30, 31
13:41 Graham Grand or Oblone 1343ie
13:42 Graham or Oblong
13:42 Rich From Jan 2010 logger data 12/29/09 18:24:46, 0:00:00, 0:05:00 Plate
13:42 Graham looks like Oblong
13:43 Rich So looks like 29th is last Plate.
13:43 Rich I just got curious about Pump because it is so regular/short interval that it might have been affected more. Or at least reflect change faster.
13:45 Derek We've been hearing about a power plant explosion in Middletown CT. Has anyone else heard about it?
13:47 Rich checking
13:47 Rich TY Derek
13:47 Graham "fewer than 50 hurt"
13:48 Derek I think Middletown is probably about 15 miles from CCs
13:48 Derek Well it made international news
13:49 Rich http://www.khabrein.info/news/Kleen_energy_Middletown_CT__Mmiddletown_CT_power_plant__Connecticut_power_plant_explosion_kills_dozens_1265572272/
13:49 Derek They say the exposion was heard quite some distance away
13:49 Derek explosion
13:51 Graham multiple people have died it says too
13:53 steve So, was that a coyote on the streaming cam?
13:54 Graham yep, lost it quickly tho
13:54 Derek I spoke to my brother in Meriden CT about 2 hours ago but he never mentioned the explosion. Meriden is only 10 miles from it.

February 8th, 2010

05:26 GreekD OF 5:26 ie?
06:37 Ryan Mustve Been a short GreekD, cause it looks like:
06:37 Ryan OF 06:37ie?
06:52 BB hi Ryan
06:53 BB hi Kent
06:54 Kent Hi BB
06:54 BB Of 06:53 ie on static
06:54 CC OF 6:54
06:54 BB hi CC
06:54 CC morning
06:55 vw good morning all.
06:55 BB hi vw
06:55 Kent I got on just in time. Thanks BB. Morning CC & vw
06:55 vw just came in to log that OF.
07:02 vw static shows a steamy morning in the basin
07:03 BB Looked like that yesterday morning for some time, then it got better
07:04 vw time clocks on the static and stream dont match. eruption times could be messed up today.
07:05 BB I think the the stream time in the chatroom is taken from your computer
07:05 BB I noticed that when my computer clock was four minutes fast
07:06 BB Stream time was four minutes fast as well and adjusted after I changed the computer clock
07:09 vw interesting. will have to check that out. Thanks BB! Neither time matches my phone either.
07:09 vw "know" my phone is right. might have to use it. Tape it to my monitor?
07:09 vw :D
07:09 BB lol
07:10 BB That's why I only call the time on the static, and always i.e. Can't be wrong with that
07:10 BB Unless I see a geyser erupting that isn't there - g
07:10 vw its those nighttime ghosts BB!
07:11 BB And since we are speaking of that, I am almost convinced that Beehive erupted yesterday morning around 8 am in the fog
07:11 BB I have two captures that look like it, but can't really tell
07:11 BB Could be completely wrong, of course.
07:11 BB I made a note and will compare it when GOSA data comes out
07:12 vw with the fog it is so hard to tell. i have vertical lines when I capture something off of the static that look like eruptions. Especially when I havent had enough coffee.
07:15 cb Mr Oringe here.....Hello ladies
07:15 vw good morning!
07:15 BB hi cb
07:15 cb hey
07:15 cb Go Saints!!
07:16 vw suppose the party is continuing in the French Quarter?

09:11 BB hi sparekitty
09:11 BB I just dropped in to say that I think Lion might have another series back there in the fog
09:11 BB I had two captures that looked like it around 07:57
09:12 sparekitty hi BB!! thanks for the heads up on lion.
09:12 BB I just checked my screenshots. Unfortunately the cam was frozen for some time but I have another shot that looks very much like Lion at 08:55
09:13 BB Not sure, but maybe we will see around 10 am
09:13 sparekitty hopefully the fog will lift a bit by then.
09:14 BB It is getting better slowly
09:14 BB I will check back later, have more chores to do :(
09:14 sparekitty later then.
09:18 Rich Hi ge
09:18 Rich Hi sparekitty
09:18 Rich Hi guest896353
09:18 Rich Hi Derek
09:19 sparekitty hey rich! happy monday.
09:22 Rich Yeah Colts!!!!
09:22 sparekitty ?
09:22 sparekitty did you watch the game? i tried, but there were too many people at my house for me to see much.
09:23 Rich I was at a bar, I don't know anything. g
09:23 sparekitty well that explains it then.
09:23 Rich lol
09:23 Rich I just cheered for who ever had the ball. g
09:24 Rich Have another drink!
09:24 sparekitty that makes as much sense as anything.
09:24 Rich You can't loose, at least.
09:24 sparekitty true
09:25 Rich I just wished everyone there had shown a little more RESPECT for THE WHO!
09:25 Rich I had a hard time telling it was Pinball Wizard.
09:25 sparekitty they were TERRIBLE
09:26 sparekitty i had some younger (20-25) friends over and had to explain that the Who used to be good...
09:27 Rich I'm sure it is a difficult venue to play in.
09:27 Derek You Americans have probably never heard of my favorite group.
09:27 sparekitty what's that, derek?
09:27 Rich Who is that?
09:27 Derek The Shadows
09:28 sparekitty yup, never heard of them
09:28 Rich Cliff Richards, The Drifters
09:29 Derek They started back in the late 1950s as Cliff Richards backing group then they went on to be one of our top instrumental groups
09:29 sparekitty my favorite band of all time (ok, one of two or three) is QUEEN. did you ever see them in concert, derek?
09:29 Derek They still sound as good today
09:30 Derek I like some of Queens music
09:31 Derek Hank Marvin and Bruce Welch have been in the group since the start
09:32 Derek The drummer Brian Bennet has been with them since the 1960s
09:32 Rich Sounds like another 'Rolling Stones' group.
09:32 Rich g
09:32 Derek They've had a number of bass players over the years.
09:33 Derek The Shadows are quite easy listening.
09:38 Rich oooh, a little clear in the basin.
09:39 darin128. sparekitty m or f?

14:17 kcmule OF 14:16:15
14:17 CC For you information Riverside was in overflow at 11:00 and it could have been riverside
14:18 CC there is no way for the VC to tell from the pictures on the Static and they will not post it in the log book
14:19 CC You may have been right however, I can not stress enough that you DO NOT CALL THE VC.

15:51 Ryan Hi Alan
15:51 Ryan Hi Hangtown
15:52 Allan Ryan, I just came on. I see your program is up?
15:54 Hangtown Bill hey Allan...cb here sort of lurking....have grandkids today
15:55 Allan How are you doing, cb?
15:55 Hangtown Bill ok, and you and v?
15:55 Allan cb, Vicki says Hi.
15:55 Hangtown Bill Hi ya back...did you get my phone msg from....a couple of weeks ago?
15:56 Allan We're doing fine. I'm nearly done with all the stuff on the house. We're interviewing realtos this week.
15:56 kcmule i may need to try this at home ryan, i'm using winxp x64 edition and i get 'the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0150002) Click on OK to terminate the application'. i have regular 32 bit winXP at home
15:56 Hangtown Bill great news!!
15:57 Allan V says she didn't get the message. She often doesn't have her cell phone on.
15:57 Hangtown Bill Darn....I called when Giantess went into eruption
15:58 Ryan k kcmule
15:58 Ryan wat hangtown CC's message?
15:58 Hangtown Bill what ryan?
15:59 Ryan nvr mind i though you read the log
16:00 Hangtown Bill what does wat mean?
16:00 kcmule OF 16:00:10
16:01 Ryan u said u called when giantess erupted, did you call the VC?
16:01 Ryan nice of on static
16:01 Loisb OF 16:00
16:01 Loisb sorry KC - too slow on the keyboard
16:02 Hangtown Bill NO!!! to many folks call the VC and they will shut down the streaming cam...as an annoyance....
16:02 kcmule (panda)
16:02 Hangtown Bill I'm not willing to take that chance
16:02 Ryan k just wondering
16:03 Hangtown Bill besides....they know...don't need to tell them
16:04 sparekitty i think they LIKE hearing from us sometimes. like when there are conewalkers. i have called and never gotten a problem
16:05 sparekitty i serioudly doubt, with all the positive press generated by the cam, that they're going to shut it down because the collective "we" of this very small chat room annoy.
16:06 sparekitty and they DON'T always "know." they haven't known when i've called them about conewalkers.
16:06 Ryan i call when giantess erupts to report the individual eruptions, only if theres no gazers in the basin
16:08 Ryan i called and alerted them to a possible F&M and was thinking about MAYBE calling later to see if it was confirmed, maybe ill call tommorrow let them cool down a lil
16:08 Loisb I doubt that the VC was concerned about your call Ryan
16:09 Ryan k
16:09 Loisb it is a public line and listed number - and we do pay their wages - well at least some of us do
16:09 Ryan Im adding the first geyser in the sim, starting (alphabetically) from Anemone to Vent, with uhh 59 inbetween
16:09 Hangtown Bill They know who you are Ryan. and you are annoying them
16:10 Ryan well im sry i didnt even kno, until CC alerted me to it
16:10 Ryan i have apologized to manyh ppl so far and wouldve apologized to CC but she wasnt on when i came back (i wasnt at the comp)
16:11 Loisb who said he is annoying them?
16:13 Allan Lion
16:14 Loisb thx
16:14 Allan time?

16:27 Ryan but still 30% is there!
16:27 Loisb but all that means is you will have more work to do when you go back Graham - I seem to recall those days
16:27 Graham so did anyone see anything at 1151 today?
16:28 Ryan F&M?
16:28 Ryan i saw it at 1147
16:28 Loisb Rich was looking though his captures but I don't recall what he found
16:28 Ryan big mushroom cloud?
16:28 Graham me? I had to work today, my company doesn't close
16:28 Loisb I was making lunch
16:28 Loisb ah'
16:28 Graham ok, looked in the right place for F&M
16:28 Graham how long did the steam last?
16:29 Loisb we used to pretty well shut down except for operators and linecrew
16:29 Ryan about 15mins i think
16:29 Ryan right time for F&M
16:29 Ryan incredible to watch it rise up like a nuclear blast tho ;)
16:30 Graham I was on the computer at work and noticed steam in the right place
16:31 Ryan it was awesome, i thought 'thats a lil big for Riverside...'
16:32 Loisb bb - got to shoot the cat
16:36 Ryan shoot the cat!?
16:36 Ryan Oblong 1636?
16:37 Graham looks
16:43 Loisb b
16:43 Loisb cat has diabetes Ryan
16:43 Loisb has a shot twice a a day
16:44 Ryan k, does anyone know how wide Anemones formation is around its vent? (like 7-8feet)
16:45 Loisb I can look it up in Rich's book if Graham doesn't know
16:45 Ryan Rich has a book?
16:46 Loisb yes
16:46 Ryan published?
16:47 Loisb T. Scott Bryan - The Geysers of Yellowstone -not one Rich wrote
16:47 Ryan O!
16:47 Ryan g i though Rich wrote a book!
16:47 Loisb Anemones double spring - two vents 10 feet apart
16:48 Loisb shallow basins
16:48 Loisb doesn't say how wide
16:48 Ryan k so then Big Anemones formation is probably like 7 feet across
16:48 Loisb Little Anemone is the one further from the boardwalk
16:49 Ryan yes
16:49 Loisb and that's about all it says
16:51 Ryan k ty
16:51 Loisb np
16:51 Ryan im modeling anemones formations for the sim
16:51 Loisb kinda figured
16:52 Ryan g
16:53 Loisb if you make it to YNP next summer you should save up your money and get a copy - interesting reading
16:54 Ryan I have it
16:54 Loisb well then why am I reading aloud - g
16:55 Ryan i even dipped it in the runoff from: Beehive, OF, Grand, and it got rained on by Fountain
16:55 Ryan its well baptized! g
16:55 Loisb g
16:55 Ryan conewalkers!
16:56 Ryan i think what are those?
16:56 Ryan and something on the BW cccccyote!
16:56 sparekitty on static?

17:15 Ryan Grand 1715
17:15 sparekitty what a great day for gazing!!
17:16 Graham makes me wonder if Grand was at 1201?
17:16 Ryan i know F&M two Grands, Oblong, and a wonderful cyotes
17:16 Ryan possibly, was a very big cloud i have a cap graham
17:17 Graham that would be only 5h13m
17:17 Ryan 5hr int isnt totally out of the question
17:17 chris bye
17:17 Loisb bye
17:18 Ryan but its uncommon, come one BH close out w agrand finale
17:18 Ryan Id say bye, but he just ran past me towards the bathroom! LOL
17:19 Graham it would be an hour shorter than all of last years intervals tho, statistically unlikely
17:19 Graham definately Grand now tho
17:20 Ryan yes but not impossible'
17:20 Graham which was the last year it had an interval that short?
17:21 Ryan Grand 1201iehttp://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=39623&l=bcfa2ce5b8&id=100000728208203
17:21 Ryan http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=39623&l=bcfa2ce5b8&id=100000728208203
17:21 Ryan definately grand definite 5hr 13min interval
17:23 Graham I would go with Lion, Depression and F&M but not Grand
17:24 Ryan idk its close

18:20 Graham yw
18:20 Ryan Night G
18:21 vw nice shots on static
18:21 Ryan Yes v there was a F&M possibly my cap of its mushroom cloud is on my fb
18:21 Ryan real nice
18:22 Michael I'm going to do a bit of arithmetic here and say that if Riverside went at 1807ie, it probably should have also gone around 1147.
18:22 Ryan maybe but it wasw a big mushroom cloud and wasnt in Riversides spot
18:23 Ryan http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=39598&l=7265b55e16&id=100000728
18:23 Ryan mushroom cloud
18:26 Michael The 11:46:33 does look like it's coming more from the F&M spot.
18:27 Ryan yeah i kno, it wasincredible looked like an atomic explosioncloud :D
18:27 Michael But if there was only one mushroom cloud down there between 11:30 and 12:15, and another one a little after 18:00, I have to lean toward Riverside.
18:28 Ryan yes but this one only lasted for about 10mins before dissapearing with periodic steam afterwards looks more like F&M
18:30 vw heading out for the night. take care all.
18:30 Ryan night vw
18:30 Michael Well, either way we'll find out eventually.

February 9th, 2010

07:14 BB hi vw
07:14 vw good morning BB. Just stopped in for a quick view. have to leave early this am. :(
07:15 BB At least there is more to see than yesterday
07:15 vw how are you this (guess it is your) afternoon?
07:15 vw yes, quite a bit less fog.
07:15 BB As we have a little sunshine today, fine. But there is more snow in the forecast...:(
07:15 vw COLD in the basin.
07:16 vw you and the eastern US. strange weather.
07:17 BB In exactly six months from today I will be in Yellowstone!
07:17 BB Yay!
07:17 vw Hurray!
07:18 vw I will have to mark it on my calendar. I hope we will be able to meet.
07:18 BB That would be so nice.
07:19 BB And we will cross the Beartooth Pass a few days later, so we will be even more in your area. So we might be able to at least squeeze in a cup of coffee?!
07:19 BB We will see then.
07:19 vw that would be wonderful? where will you head after the Park?
07:20 BB I think the general direction is Glacier NP
07:20 vw didnt mean that ? Meant !
07:20 vw coming over the Beartooth you will be headed in the wrong direction?
07:21 vw but from Red Lodge you can get to I90 freeway and zoom west
07:21 BB We stayed in Cooke City two years ago, and we really want to go back there.
07:21 BB Best steak I ever had, and I am not really a meat eater *g*
07:21 vw Montana beef is some of the best
07:21 BB Then we drove up to the Beartooth summit and back down on the same side
07:22 BB So this time we would like to go down on the other side
07:22 vw ahhh. so you didnt get to experience the switchbacks! you are in for an adventure!
07:22 vw slow going but spectacular views
07:22 vw lots of steam at Lion
07:22 BB My husband thinks as we have lots of Alp mountain passes experience, he will be able to manage :)
07:22 vw and Depression
07:23 vw I am sure you will do just fine.
07:23 vw Too much steam to call Depression, but big steam plume
07:25 vw With BH last night around 5, we could easily see a morning eruption!
07:25 vw sadly, I will be occupied.
07:29 vw I need to head out. Hope everyone has a wonderful day.
07:29 vw bye!
07:29 BB bye vw
07:37 lc looks like Beehive ind was ie 0732, then the fog rolled in.
07:38 BB hi lc
07:38 lc hi BB
07:39 lc did you see the close up of Beehive before the fog rolled in?
07:39 BB No, sorry, didn't pay attention.
07:39 BB I have the static cam open in another tab, and I keep going back and forth to capture
07:39 lc ok, now I'm pretty sure indicator ie at 0739.
07:40 BB I often don't see stuff until I review the captures
07:40 BB Now BH?
07:40 lc Beehive ie 0740
07:46 lc I think Depression was ie at 0732, not positive.
07:47 lc could have beenn strong overflow.
07:49 BB Depression has been steaming heavily ever since I logged on today. I have several captures where I thought it was i.e., but none I am sure of
07:50 lc thanks. probably what I saw was overflow.

11:30 Rich Hi guest778616
11:36 Rich Correction to OF ie 11:27:28 wc
11:37 Rich Looks like lots of steam over Solitary way.
11:37 Rich maybe that is OF steam.
11:37 Rich Guess it would just about have to be with the wind drift. Oh, well, back to data crunching.
11:39 Rich Plume ie 11:38:29 wc
11:49 Rich Hi guest384935
11:57 Rich HI guest393098

11:59 Rich Hi Bill M
11:59 Rich Hi ge
12:00 Bill M Hi Rich... I was AKA guest303098
12:00 Rich g
12:00 Bill M So what seems to be the interest here right now?
12:00 Rich Nice to meet you, 'in person'.
12:01 Bill M I've only been able to catch fleeting trips to the park over the past 3-4 summers...
12:01 Rich Hopeing for the non regular geysers.
12:01 Bill M disapointing actually...
12:02 Rich Feb 09, 2010 recap Beehive Indicator 07:39ie, Beehive 07:40ie, Daisy 10:26ie, Depression ?07:32 Grand 09:53:57ie 3b, OF 08:14ie, 09:56ie, 11:27:28ie, Plume 11:38:29ie,
12:02 Rich There was a possible F&M yesterday morning.
12:03 Bill M thanks
12:03 Rich yw, nop
12:03 Rich np
12:03 Rich your welcome, no problem, except my typing. g
12:04 Bill M do you know where in the basin we are looking right now?
12:04 Rich I only watch the static cam due to bandwidth.
12:04 Rich Sorry
12:05 Bill M ahhh.
12:05 Bill M I'm thinking perhaps up toward Grand or behind geyser hill.
12:05 Rich Most of the day timers are watching while at work, so someone might chiime in at any time.
12:07 Rich http://donsplace.orgfree.com/ofcc2/there are reference photos and one of them is a panorama of the streaming cam view.
12:07 Bill M This is zoomed in so close...
12:08 Rich Grand already erupted, so doubtful that it is looking there.
12:08 Bill M they just zoomed it out... Looks like maybe we were looking toward the trees where Solitary is.
12:09 Bill M Nope... it wasn't that...
12:09 Rich Hi BB
12:09 Rich BB you got the streaming cam up?
12:09 BB yes
12:09 Rich Can you tell us where it is point?
12:09 Rich pointed
12:09 BB yes, BH and Little Cub/Lion behind it
12:10 Rich ty
12:10 BB Steam drifting in from Depression
12:10 Bill M opening the panoramic..
12:10 Rich might want to down load it and then view it.
12:10 BB now back to OF
12:10 Bill M whatever they were focusing on is way down basin of the current image. and a pretty good steam cloud... I will check the panorama... thanks for psoting the link
12:11 Rich Bill M was just trying to figure out where it was.
12:11 Rich yw
12:11 BB Ah... I was too late for that. When I came on it was already on the BH/Lion view
12:12 Rich Bill M if you can id any geyser location on the panorama, please let me know, as it is a work in progress.
12:12 Bill M absolutely incredible zoom capability on this camera... I want one...
12:12 Rich lol
12:13 BB Don't we all *g*
12:13 BB I reviewed my captures, and I spotted a coyote at OF this morning
12:13 Bill M BB it was down in the Grand/Spasmodic/Oblong area... Or so it appeard after they zoomed out.
12:14 BB Ah, okay, I am not so good with that
12:14 Bill M Maybe Riverside? Just not sure I haven't watched enough.
12:14 BB Still trying to figure everything out on Geyser Hill
12:15 BB I would say no to Riverside. That is clearly visible on the static, and there was no steam in that area
12:15 BB And Rich would know exactly where that is... probably better than me
12:15 BB I posted the coyote to FB. But be warned, you might need a magnifying glass to see it lol
12:15 BB http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=109581&l=248ad24879&id=100000534101661
12:16 Bill M So BB where are we now? Daisy?
12:16 Bill M not there... off to the right of that.
12:16 BB Oops, didn't pay attention, have to check
12:17 Bill M BB it was moved...
12:17 Rich Riverside is marked on the static cam reference photo
12:17 BB I give up :)
12:18 BB I am constantly going back and forth between tabs and windows, now I am completely lost
12:18 Bill M LOL... Me too.. I'm going to just have fun watching.
12:18 Rich Riverside in general terms is to the left of Depression, above the treeline at the big notch.
12:18 Rich That's tne name of the 'game'. g
12:19 Bill M Now this I know
12:19 BB g
12:22 Bill M I'm sure there is software out there that could tak ethe image and process all of the markers around what you see to come up with the correct feature name.... kinda like the gov't uses for face recognition
12:22 BB Rich, I found another Plume in my captures which I think isn't in the log yet. It was 10:35:23 i.e. on the static
12:22 Rich Loisb just found on the captures from yesterday the coyotes on the sidewalk.
12:22 Rich ty
12:23 Rich tis now. g
12:23 BB I was just wondering...
12:24 Rich yes?
12:24 BB about Plume, never mind
12:25 Rich coyote 16:56:01 and 16:56:32 captures yesterday
12:25 Rich k
12:25 BB Too late for me then to have them captured. Are you (or Lois) going to post them?
12:27 Rich The answer was a resounding YEP!
12:27 Rich g
12:27 BB It was probably a stupid question anyway lol
12:27 Rich On the earlier Plume, my captures jump that time.
12:27 Rich lol
12:27 Rich No Question is stupid.
12:28 Rich We just might doubt your sanity. g
12:28 BB I know, only the answer can be
12:28 Rich g
12:29 Rich I realy like the quilt block.
12:29 BB Which one? The little house?
12:29 Rich yes
12:30 Rich Reminds me of the poem, "A little house by the side of the Road"
12:30 Rich Loisb says she is on her way to uploading, just finished some ediiting.
12:31 BB I was just so surprised when I found it. Amazing what a 10yo can do if left to his own devices
12:31 BB I will definitely keep that one
12:31 Rich That is the best part.
12:31 Rich A personal desire to do it.
12:40 Bill M Well I think I am off to clean the garage....
12:40 BB If you really think that is a better use of your time *g*
12:41 Bill M lol
12:41 Rich yuk, guess someone 'has' to do it. g
12:41 Bill M No, but it has to be done... We're getting ready to move and I have to have some place to put stuff - downsizing you know
12:42 Rich Good Chatting Bill M
12:42 Bill M 5 bed to 2... Major downsizing!!!!
12:42 Bill M I may be back later... thanks.
12:42 BB bye Bill M
12:42 Rich see ya
12:47 Rich Seems to be some steam back at Riverside.
12:48 BB Is that the first frame with steam? I was mesmerized by those yellow pants... didn't see anything else
12:49 Rich I have to check captures
12:49 Rich me too, g
12:49 BB First I have is 12:44:08... okay, that was before the person in the yellow pants appeared
12:49 Rich omp
12:51 Rich Hi guest316299
12:52 Kent Hi Rich
12:52 Rich Hi Kent
12:53 Rich I think my first capture for Riverside ie 12:43:35 wc has a pretty good wind drift on it.
12:53 BB I think I don't have that one
12:54 Rich The next one I have is 12:46:02
12:58 Kent BB, that was a good catch on the capture. It is obvious now that it is a coyote, but I would have never caught it. Neat.
12:58 BB Thanks, Kent
12:59 BB Running full speed through the captures helps. It sometimes makes you see movement... I guess I somehow saw that speck appearing and disappearing
13:00 Rich Now you know why animals have camoflaged coats.
13:00 BB Yes, works well
13:04 BB OF 13:04 ie
13:04 Rich OF ie 13:04:04 wc
13:09 BB I am leaving. Good night, Rich, and all

13:22 Rich Hi Mario
13:22 Mario Hi all fellow fanatics
13:22 Mario yay my name is in green today
13:23 Rich for the moment. g
13:23 Rich Hi guest234972
13:23 Mario true
13:24 Rich I tried figuring out why/time for the color changes.
13:26 Mario what did you come up with?
13:29 Rich Not much, somehow it got re prioritized lower on the list.
13:30 Rich Usually a geyser erupts and and I loose track of what I'm doing. g
13:35 Rich I get the feeling that the color signifies the llength of time in the room.
13:44 Rich Hi BobinGA
13:44 BobinGA Hi All, just in for a few minutes.
13:45 Rich Hi cb
13:45 Hangtown Bill hi rich
13:47 kcmule all i see in the meebo faq is that username colors are automatically assigned
13:47 Rich And they shift
13:48 kcmule w/o leaving and coming back in ?
13:50 Rich yes
13:50 Rich I went from gray to red
13:51 Rich Marior went from green to gray
14:02 Rich  hi rhbm
14:02 RHBM So boring today we're discussing name colors, eh? I should change my name to something that starts with A. I wonder if Anna's taken. Ha!
14:03 Rich lol
14:03 Rich You are the only one I know of that has used that name. g
14:03 BobinGA HEY! You people stay out of the A & B names!
14:04 Rich lol
14:08 BobinGA How close to Lion (?) are the people I see on the Stream?
14:09 Rich The person out by Marmot ?
14:10 Rich at the bend in the boardwalk?
14:10 Rich Around 50-60 feet
14:10 BobinGA Yeah, they just went off to the right.
14:16 Rich I'm thinking that from Beehive to Plume is about 100 - 120 feet
14:16 sparekitty so, rich, i just got back from lunch. while i guess i didn't miss BH, did i miss anything fun?
14:17 kcmule guess again :(
14:17 Rich Not much has happened since the last OF at 13:04
14:17 Rich Loisb and BB both posted coyote captures from yesterday and today on FB
14:17 sparekitty thanks,

14:24 BobinGA Gotta run, have a good day. C'Ya
14:25 Rich bye BobinGA
14:25 Rich Same for me, I'm on the go.
14:25 sparekitty later, rich
14:26 Rich bye sparekitty
14:26 Rich Bye everyone
14:36 lc OF 1432 ie
15:41 sparekitty plume ie 15:41
15:44 Graham hello
15:44 sparekitty hi, graham.
15:45 lc hey Graham
15:47 Graham looks like times are sparse this afternoon
15:49 lc Beehive and Grand went this morning, not sure how many people are really watching.
15:49 Graham yeah that reduces the fan base
15:50 Graham Pat had Indicator 0737ie and BH 0739
15:51 sparekitty that's mighty early on the west coast!
15:51 Graham depression 0756 - hum, differs from this list
15:51 lc I thought I saw Indicator at 0732, then the fom moved in for about 5 minutes so I couldn't tell for sure.
15:52 lc fog
15:52 Graham Castle 0933ie, Plume 1348, 1446, Aurum 1524
15:52 lc Grand had 3 burst.
15:53 Graham cool
15:54 GreekD speaking of grand
15:54 GreekD does anyone know where i can get data not only for grand times, but also turban times?
15:54 GreekD i would like to compare my science project results to the real thing
15:55 Graham what sort of Turban info do you need?
15:55 GreekD interval from grand to the first turban
15:55 GreekD turban to turban
15:55 GreekD turban to when grand initiates its own eruptions
15:56 GreekD all that stuff
15:56 GreekD and more if possible
15:57 Graham we know the general numbers but not the detailed times
15:58 GreekD ah, OK
15:58 GreekD cuz in my geyser model
15:58 GreekD there was a significant difference in intervals from a Grand initiated Grand, and a Turban initiated Grand to the next Turban
15:59 Graham overflow is about 3 1/2 hours after eruption so that's probably when the logger starts recording Turbans eruptions. There have been some plots in the Sput from Ralph
16:00 Graham OF 1600
16:01 Graham Grand usually starts within the first 2 min of Turban or before it
16:01 Graham it can be over 3min too
16:02 GreekD can the logger tell the difference between a T2Q and a G3C for instance?
16:02 Graham Turban intervals are generally 20-22 early in its recovery and drop to below 20 near eruption tiime on average I think
16:02 Graham no
16:02 GreekD ok thanks
16:03 Graham I guess it might be possible to tell if Grand starts a long time after Turban because the temp could rise before the Grand spike
16:04 Graham you can't tell the burst count from the logger
16:04 Graham and I don't think you can tell if its a Q or C
16:04 Graham Depression 1603ie
16:05 Graham yeah only 8-10" in the forecast tonight!
16:06 sparekitty wow; and i'm annoyed it's going to rain a bit! better 1 inch rain that almost a foot of snow!
16:06 Graham yep...this 8-10 is on top of our 25" on Saturday
16:13 Mario Poll: What's the highest number of Grand bursts seen by members of the chatroom?
16:14 Graham Hum.....how many years of eruptions can we add the bursts for?
16:14 lc 4 here
16:14 Mario sorry, one eruption only :)
16:15 Mario 4 here also, May 2004
16:15 Graham more than 4
16:15 Graham but only 2 this year
16:15 Graham so far
16:16 lc I saw one 3 in 2008, only 1's and 2's since.
16:18 Graham I saw several 5 burst eruptions but that was quite a few years ago
16:29 Graham oh good, its snowing for a change
16:31 Mario I would love to see a five...
16:33 Mario or a six...
16:33 Graham I would take a 3 burst these days
16:33 Mario wasn't there a 3 burst this morning?
16:34 Graham I read the report but didnt see it
16:36 lc I did see it. I can't remember seeing a 3 burst before on the cam.
16:41 Graham I think I have seen just a couple
16:42 lc Graham, question about N. Gog.
16:42 Graham sure?
16:43 lc what got your attention?
16:43 lc did it look different than days before, hours before?
16:44 Graham when its active, it has extended overflows - instead of 3 min of overflow it can overflow for an hour. then when the water drops it boils violently
16:44 Graham then when the water comes up it tries to erupt
16:44 Graham it can cycle several times, boiling at depth before it erupts or stops boiling
16:44 Graham I walked by and it was boiling at depth so I watched it
16:45 lc did it erupt at the end of a Lion series?
16:45 Graham about 3 hours after the series ended which is typical
16:46 lc thanks, I sure wi***** would erupt again soon.
16:46 Graham it can have series too, erupt about an hour apart I think
16:47 Graham but it cooled off so I stopped watching
16:47 Graham the Majors usually happen during Lion series I gather but they don't happen often, I have never seen one of them
16:48 lc I remember seeing it erupt several times but I don't think any majors.
16:57 sexy guy any girls pm me
17:06 Graham coyote out there
17:06 Ryan yep
17:06 Ryan and Oblong or Grand 1706ns
17:07 Ryan Grand 1706ns

18:20 Ryan so far tho i have called (on cam); Giantess, Grand, F&M, uhh evrything but giant
18:21 Ryan and in the park: Beehive, Grand, Aurum, Fountain, Lion , Sawmill, Daisy, Riverside, and even Penta :), oh and a Giant hotperiod, no eruption tho of course
18:22 Graham how many F&M's have been correct?
18:22 Ryan 3, 4 if what i saw yesterday was correct
18:23 Ryan of like 6 total so i got a 66% (D-)
18:23 Graham it may have been Riverside yesterday, there was only one steam cloud seen and Riverside was due
18:24 Ryan Yes, but i have never seen riverside do that 'mushroom cloud'
18:24 Graham until yesterday :)

07:07 Ryan either way, im leaving for Utah the first day of summer break and if theres school ill be missing it again... ...im trying to get to the park while in utah
07:09 vw SoE doesnt matter. Number of days children are in school is all about funding.
07:09 Ryan ooo well then yes, well have to make them up over easter or june
07:10 vw lots of kids here miss those make up days.
07:10 vw rarely happens in the major towns, but rural areas get hit sometimes because roads are so bad for buses.
07:11 Ryan yeah

07:43 guest124967 He's probly banging his laptop on desk LOL
07:43 BB at work Urgh... hope that helps *g*
07:45 BB at work Just checked my captures... Lion was also i.e. at 06:41

08:43 guest124967 Nice Old faithful
08:43 Ryan scroll down (OF 0842) through the images and look for the one called "Doramant Geyser NOT" Its Giantess and they dont even kno it!
08:45 Ryan range is GO for Launch,
08:45 Rich Guess the last OF was a short.
08:45 Ryan watch weather, next pollo coming up... T-0 is set for 1056 again
08:45 guest124967 I was just gonna say that
08:45 guest124967 OF a short
08:45 Ryan NASA = Never Absolutely Sure of Anything
08:46 guest124967 Last one that is
08:46 guest124967 Well the prediction on the static was wrong
08:47 BB at work I think Lion was 08:37 ie
08:47 BB at work Lots of fog again, but I have a few captures
08:48 BB at work Rich, do you have any of that time to check?
08:48 Rich I'll check.
08:49 Rich I don't think I was logged on yet, but I will look
08:49 Ryan nasa now doing its polls
08:51 Ryan launch moved to 1126
08:51 Rich g
08:52 Ryan 8(
08:53 guest124967 Can someone tell me something. Does Old Faithfuls' steam phase ever roar or make any noise?
08:53 Rich Looks like I got on just after 8, only captures I have are not very helpful, mostly vague steam columns.
08:53 Ryan not usually guest124967
08:54 Ryan ive never heard it but im sure it can
08:54 Rich I was trying to remember, I only remember the wind blowing by. g
08:54 guest124967 That last load of steam was coming out real fast
08:55 Ryan g
08:56 Rich It did look like a rocket motor being tested at Edwards.
08:56 Ryan :D
09:04 Rich J O D
09:04 Rich According to the Knight-Ridder News Service, the inscription on the metal bands used by the U.S. Department of the Interior to tag migratory birds was changed.
09:04 Rich The bands used to bear the name of the Washington Biological Survey, abbreviated "Wash. Biol. Surv."
09:04 Rich The agency then received the following letter from an Arkansas camper:
09:04 Rich "To whom it may concern: While camping last week I shot one of your birds. I think it was a crow. I followed the cooking instructions on the leg tag and I want to tell you it was horrible."
09:05 Rich The bands are now marked Fish and Wildlife Service.

09:28 Rich That is where I'm stuck now.
09:28 BB I am at 09:27 now... but they haven't changed the prediction yet, so we will be stuck again
09:29 BB No, just changed to 09:28 with a new prediction
09:29 Rich ah, the famous prediction freeze.
09:30 BB Are you still frozen? Cause there is steam that could be Riverside
09:30 BB Hard to tell as I can't see the hills in the background
09:31 Rich still frozen
09:32 Rich I see it on Lois,
09:32 BB Possible Riverside steam was first visible at 09:29:12
09:32 BB I have two captures before that without steam but a clear view of that area
09:32 Rich hi kcmule
09:35 Rich Finally a refresh
09:36 Rich Now I can't tell if it is 'fog' behind or a bare spot above and to the right of Riverside.
09:38 Rich Nice little collection of steam columns.
09:39 Rich Maybe running a slideshow will be revealing.
09:42 Rich Nice steam at Little Squirt
09:47 Ryan http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=45418&l=4d3f02abb3&id=100000728208203
09:47 Ryan in caase u havent seen it
09:47 Ryan it shows the new alert system in my simulator
09:50 Rich Now we can have an F&M when ever we want one. g
09:51 Ryan g the interval range for it is 3.5-9 hours so god luck, but it does go into locks and soyou see a message tha say: "NOT: Fan and Motar is in a lock
09:51 Ryan ! Eruption possible within 15minutes!
10:00 Rich Lion sure is trying.
10:03 Rich I don't know what to call what Lion is doing.
10:04 BB I think most of the steam is coming from Little Cub which was erupting right now
10:04 Rich ok
10:04 BB The streaming is zoomed to that area, and the splashes of water are visible from time to time
10:04 BB Lion has heavy steam though
10:05 Rich ty
10:09 BB Rich, do you have a 10:08:18 capture? Is that Plume or OF steam?
10:12 Rich omp
10:18 Rich When I enlarged 10:08:18 I can see the BW in front of the steam, so I would say Plume.
10:19 BB I thought Plume too

18:31 Ryan GRRRR :(


February 12th, 2010

06:48 Ryan :O Its clear, I can se in the dark! :)
06:55 Ryan grr >:( vista is making me mad!
06:56 BB hi Ryan
06:58 Ryan Morning BB! Please dont tell me you use Vista too!
06:58 BB Not if I can avoid it
06:58 Ryan g
06:58 BB XP at home and office, but the laptop only came with Vista... not too happy about it
06:58 Ryan I have it on this laptop, its slow and the security stinks
07:00 BB hi Bob
07:00 BobinGA Morning, looks like we need a little more daylight for the streaming cam.
07:00 Ryan OK: Im on my ADMINISTRATOR account, and I rename a file and its says that I need ADMINISTRATOR PERMISSION! But im on my ADMINISTRATOR ACCOUNT, so the little screen comes up and says, One of your users wants to remane this file, IS THAT OK!?!?!?!?!
07:00 Ryan >:( i dont like vitsa
07:01 Ryan Morning Bob!
07:02 BB It drives me crazy that I need administrator permission to remove a link from the desktop
07:02 Ryan static cams been visile for almost 45mins now
07:02 Ryan I know, ad your on the administrator account when you do it, right?
07:03 BB No, I am not. But what does the admin care if I want to do something to my user account?
07:03 BobinGA Hey Ryan, I've used all of the PC OS versions since DOS. None are perfect, all have bugs, and there's not much we can do about it. Actually I really loved DOS - simple but limited - sorta like me.:P
07:03 BB Well, as I have the admin password I can delete anything I want, but I just don't see any sense in that
07:04 BB I don't think Ryan remembers DOS X-D
07:04 Ryan When I set up my account, I set it as an administrator account.
07:04 Ryan I do, I have used it before!
07:04 Ryan /:)
07:04 BB Okay, sorry :)
07:04 Ryan g its okay no worries
07:05 Ryan Back Basin is fogged in again...
07:05 Ryan Windows 7 is somewhat better...
07:05 Ryan i still liked XP the most tho...
07:05 BB I work with two girls that are both 21, I think, and they never remember anything... they think cellphones, email, the internet, FB, cable TV and things like that have been around forever
07:05 BB makes me really feel old g
07:06 Ryan g
07:06 BB If I mentioned DOS to them, they would have no idea
07:07 BobinGA My first computer experience was with an IBM 1460 and an IBM 7080 - talk about old!
07:07 Ryan Ok, ive been looking for 2hours to find a place o download and install ActiveX, any suggestions (pooped)
07:08 Ryan g
07:08 BB I am definitely a member of the Commodore 64 generation... so I don't think I am that old g
07:09 BobinGA Generally, when you access something on the web that needs Active X, it will give you an opportunity to download.
07:10 Ryan the oldest computer ive used was the MAC comuter in like the late 1990s, It had the "Oregone Trail Game" on it
07:10 Ryan Yes Bob, but my security wont let me download it, its from a geyser simulator i put online on a differnt computer
07:10 Ryan i open it up and it says "Instal ActiveX"
07:11 Ryan i say yes it says no because "it cant find the publisher" even tho I put it there
07:12 BobinGA Ah, so that's the situation with the admin rights discussion.
07:13 Ryan kinda, the fact that i cant rename a fil without "admin permission" ticked me off! :P
07:13 BobinGA So, back to geyser talk. Do we know when OF is due. (I know it's too early for the center to post.)
07:13 lc good morning all
07:13 Ryan I havent seen it since 630
07:13 lc just checking the log
07:13 Ryan morning lc
07:13 BB I have been watching for 35 minutes and haven't seen anything yet
07:13 BB hi lc
07:14 lc do any of you remember IBM Tab machines?
07:15 Ryan do u expect me to /:) g
07:15 Ryan :P
07:15 lc no
07:15 Ryan ok good
07:15 lc thought Bob might
07:16 BB not me
07:16 BobinGA I have seen them but never not in use. Lots of card sorters and board wiring and keypunches, etc.
07:17 BobinGA Sorry about the double negative. Old fumble fingers here.
07:18 Ryan OF 0719
07:19 lc when I startee in 1956, we had 089,407, 514, and maybe a couple of others
07:21 BobinGA Here I thought I was the senior IT person in the group, but I didn't get into it until 1966.
07:21 lc my first computer experience was a 7070
07:22 lc I was an operator, then programmer.
07:23 lc not much on pc's
07:24 BobinGA I took a programming class and made an "A" and a geek was born. Of course, now I am hopelessly lost in the PC world. Can't even get the gumption to blow away my hard drive and load Windows 7.
07:26 lc when I have a problem I call my son, he is pc savy.
07:27 BobinGA I think that now would be a good time to run a backup to the NAS and take a nap. (Just showing off - I know that our backup drive is (network attached storage) because it says so on the box.)
07:29 lc I need more coffee
07:30 BobinGA I'll drop back in later. C'Yall
07:30 BB bye Bob
07:31 BB hi cb

06:45 BB OF was 06:41 i.e. on static
06:46 vw good afternoon BB. Just came on to log in that OF. Glad you saw it. one minute earlier than I noticed it.
06:46 BB hi vw
06:46 BB If I have the time I start running captures when it is still dark
06:46 vw any chance of you seeing some sun in the next couple of days?
06:47 vw moon phase right now makes night time viewing a little difficult!
06:47 BB Not very soon, I am afraid. We had more snow on Thursday and yesterday
06:47 BB Night time viewing is impossible right now g
06:47 vw oh no. Snow everywhere in the states here.
06:48 BB Well, it finally stopped today, and there is none in the forecast for the next few days
06:48 vw last nights news said 48 (dont hold me to that!) states saw snow yesterday. VERY odd.
06:48 BB I just wish the stuff on the ground would finally melt. It has been around since December
06:51 vw That is how we are here in Billings. Looking like we will break the record for number of days with snow on the ground. more predicted for today.
06:51 vw bye!
06:51 BB bye vw

10:48 Rich Hi guest994943
10:59 ge hi-all
11:00 Rich steve I just checked my captures and I jump from 09:29 to 09:41, so I must have been away from the computer. sorry
11:05 steve O, well, all series must end some time. I like these long lion series
11:07 steve Sometimes I m away from my computer even when I m in front of it
11:08 Rich lol
11:08 Rich I don't think I'm awake this morning, don't know why I would wander off with a pending Lion. g
11:10 steve Well, it didn t show at 1030, so it ll be a few days now
11:10 BobinGA When the cam is pointed directly toward OF, what compass direction is that?
11:11 steve Hmmm, almost due north I would think
11:11 steve maybe a little west of north?
11:12 BobinGA So the wind is currently blowing from west to east. That makes for good viewing of OF.
11:13 steve yep, and OF should be along soon
11:13 Rich  
http://www.yellowstone.net/geysers/upperbasin.htm
11:14 BobinGA On the static cam I can see a crowd gathering.
11:14 Rich Crowds usually start gathering about 20-30min before OF.
11:15 BobinGA Rich, thanks for the map.
11:17 Rich IF you draw a line from OF toward Plume, that will just about be cam angle
11:17 Rich BobinGA, here is a resource page link
http://donsplace.orgfree.com/ofcc2/maps.htm
11:20 BobinGA I have that book marked but I don't always remember to go to the resource pages. Sometimes I will just be lazy and ask. You folks are very kind to newbies.
11:21 Rich Usually HAL will jump in and help with fact finidng. g
11:23 BobinGA Yes, but sometimes HAL won't open the pod bay door.:(
11:24 HAL Oh, Dave, we have an air leak, please step into the emergency pod. g
11:24 Rich OF ie 11:23:53 WC
11:25 Rich Hi guest921902
11:25 Rich there be a little steam from Lion
11:26 BobinGA Static cam had a great frame of the first big shot from OF.
11:27 steve Maybe we ll get realy lucky and see North Goggles. It hasn
11:27 Rich Plume?
11:27 steve opps, hasn t been seen since Graham caught it has it
11:28 steve yep, plume
11:33 Ryan was just outside using a scraper to break ice off the stairs the handle broke, cut open 3 of me fingers ouch, :P
11:33 Ryan is cstle trying?
11:34 Graham ouch
11:34 Graham doesn't look like it is trying very hard
11:37 Ryan has anyone here read the "Yellowstone Story" Vol1&2
11:38 BobinGA Ryan, bleeding on the keyboard is not recommended. Seriously, take care of that.
11:39 Ryan im ok
11:39 Rich I recommend that Ryan not be allowed to de-ice or shovel snow.
11:39 Graham haha, he doesn't get out of work that easily
11:39 Rich Went to shovel snow, fell on rear the other day. g
11:39 Rich lol
11:40 Ryan u OK
11:41 BobinGA Currently on screen: an advertisement for Ted's Montana Grill bison burgers.
11:42 Ryan g
11:42 steve Ryan, I did read them, but that was years ago
11:42 Graham they semm bison short ribs at the OF Snow Lodge dining room too, tasty!
11:43 Rich Wonder if I can 'borrow' some bears so I can grow them for export?
11:43 Ryan just read the part about "soaping geysers"
11:43 Rich Only for medicinal purpose.
11:43 Ryan quote from book:
11:44 BobinGA Are they talking about the Lady Knox geyser in New Zealand? They dump soap in it every morning at 10:15 to trigger an eruption.
11:44 Rich Is'nt one of the 'soaped' geyser along the bw between Sawmill and Lion?
11:45 Ryan "you see if you soap a geyser itr may become reliant on the soap. Then it may never erupt again, untill some poor soul walks by w soap and the geyser grabs him takes the soap and blows itself and the man skyward!"
11:45 Ryan this was back in th 1800s when u were alloweed to soap geysers in
11:46 Ryan YNP, they dont allow it anymore
11:46 BobinGA Great way to do laundry back then
11:46 steve g I like the quote, I like the image it brings
11:46 Ryan Chinaman Spring? LOL
11:47 Ryan The particular geyser they were reffering to in this quote was "The Beehive"
11:48 steve At one point Beehive erupted about once a week, so it did get soaped
11:50 Ryan yes, but i believe half the fun of geyser gazing is waiting w friends for the main event
11:50 Rich agreed
11:50 steve agreed
11:51 Ryan "Geyser Gazing is hours of boredome, punctuated by about 5 mins of sheer and pure excitement" - Ryan Maurer 2010
11:51 Graham sorry i was afk Kent when you commented about "my" geyser
11:52 BobinGA OK Folks, time to work on the Sat. afternoon "Honey Do" list. C'Yall around.
11:52 Ryan bye BobinGA
11:52 Graham I am waiting till it grows to 4' tall and we can see it on the cam above the railing
11:52 Rich Enjoy
11:52 Rich bye BobinGA
11:53 steve gee, when the list is done, does she do the items on the list?
11:54 Ryan beehive looks armed, someone light the fuse and start the indicator
11:54 Rich g
11:55 Ryan if only CC were here, Beehive loves her!
11:55 Ryan ooo, lion meowed too
11:56 Rich I found out that 'Honey Do' lists are inheritable. g
11:57 Graham and can be generated by sisters too Rich?
11:59 Rich Most definitely. g
11:59 Graham bubblers are going and maybe c2c
11:59 Rich I might be hung out to dry later.
12:00 Ryan yay C2C!!!!
12:00 Ryan aww no C2C
12:01 Michael Oblong 12:00ie
12:01 Graham C2C is going Ryan
12:02 Graham not so sure about Oblong
12:02 Ryan Oh, it is! I didnt see the splashing before, thought it was, bigger.
12:02 Rich Interval for BH is around 18.5h now.
12:03 Ryan not only is BH armed, now its primed to, lets go BHI!
12:03 Graham its usually just small bubbling/splashing until BHI starts
12:03 boy21 hi
12:03 Rich hi boy21
12:03 boy21 how r u?
12:04 Rich Good
12:04 Michael We'll have to check the stil cam for Oblong. If it was going, it's definitely done now.

12:04 Rich Hi Micahel
12:04 Michael Hi Rich.
12:04 boy21 is that interesting?
12:04 boy21 it sounds boring
12:04 Michael To us it is.
12:04 boy21 oh
12:04 Rich Very interesting.
12:04 boy21 cool
12:04 Rich A Natural Wonder of the world.
12:04 Ryan yep, very very intresting
12:04 boy21 doesnt it do the same thing every time it erupts
12:05 Rich Every eruption of each geyser is different from the last.
12:05 boy21 oh cool
12:05 Michael It's always a little diffetent. different sunlight, different patterns in the steam and falling water.
12:05 Ryan No, everyone is different, and there is more than one geyser too.
12:06 Rich There are more thermal features in Yellowstone National Park than all the rest of the world combined.
12:06 Michael There's at least a dozen other geysers that we can see on camera besides Old Faithful. Some of them are less frequent and harder to predict.
12:06 Rich Yellowstone is one of the Mega Volcanos that exist.
12:07 Michael Bye.
12:07 Rich g
12:07 Ryan g lasted longer than usual
12:07 steve g
12:07 Rich I guess I stretch the lead a little far, almost made it to the watering trough.
12:10 Rich Hi paperboy777
12:11 Rich Hi guest4327620
12:11 guest4327620 m
12:12 Rich several
12:14 Rich brb, pill time.
12:15 Ryan they r ski jumping at the Olympics.
12:16 Rich I can ski jump, as long as it is across the skis and not length wise. g
12:16 Ryan g me too
12:19 Ryan Tardy!
12:19 Ryan No wait Old Tardy?
12:19 Ryan Or just Sawmill?
12:19 steve I was gonna ask what that was
12:20 steve My bearings are off
12:20 Ryan i thinks its one of the tardys
12:20 Graham probably Tardy, not big enough for Sawmill
12:20 Michael I'm going to guess Tardy. It's right where Sawmill is, but not as big.
12:21 lc hey all
12:21 Rich Hi lc

12:22 Graham hi cb. did vw have fun last night?
12:22 cb yes LOL
12:22 cb she did fine!!
12:23 lc she did good on Beehive.
12:23 Graham Depression 1223ie

12:33 Graham I hope so too, looked splashy earlier

12:34 lc hi vw
12:34 Graham hey vw, how was camtime last night?
12:34 vw nerve wracking G! :D
12:35 vw Thankfully cb was my helpful sidekick and CC had my back.
12:35 Graham yeah its different running the cam to watching the cam
12:36 vw it certainly is. looking forward to the day I come even half close to being as good as everybody else!
12:36 Graham well we are all different in the way we do it
12:37 steve Well, bye, it looks like I have a honey do list also

13:03 Graham Daisy 1303ie
13:07 lc does the time on this page come from my computer?
13:07 Rich From Paul's site, yes.
13:07 lc then adjust for time zone?
13:07 Rich yes
13:07 Rich Time stamp on static is generated by VC computer.
13:08 lc ty Rich, I need to adjust my computer time.
13:08 Rich wait
13:08 Rich it says MDT but it is realy just MST.
13:09 Rich No adjustment for time zone. But the time is generated by your computer.
13:10 lc I am in central. I think my computer is about 45 seconds off.
13:10 Rich Hi monk2003
13:10 Rich Sorry for the confusion, lc
13:11 lc np, I understand, thanks
13:11 Rich I'm feeding my face. g
13:11 lc always a good thing. g
13:11 Michael The letters MDT appear to be hard-coded into Paul's site, even if it shows the correct MST time.
13:11 Rich correct
13:13 Rich Only other timing concern is with the log time stamp during daylight savings time.
13:13 Rich Hi guest124967
13:16 lc I don't understand why Canadian geese stay in Yellowstone in winter.
13:19 Rich The bison herd must really like us today.
13:21 Graham they are way down-basin - you watching streaming today Rich?
13:22 Graham watching for water in the indicator now
13:22 Rich Nope, I see them moving down by the treeline.
13:22 vw It would be nice to have another daytime BH.
13:22 Graham well we still have 5 hours vw
13:23 vw yes, but days are still so short that catching BH on consecutive days isnt a common occurrence
13:23 Rich Coming up on 20h interval for BH.
13:26 Rich Looks like the Bison have been down basin starting about 10:45
13:26 Graham theres a lot of them all over the meadow down there
14:06 Graham did I miss Plume?
14:07 lc I didn't see it
14:08 Michael I don't know. The intervals we've gotten so far today are peculiar enough that I can't tell what it's doing.
14:09 Michael We have 9:03, 11:28 and 12:55. Interval between observations of 145m and 87m.
14:09 Michael Makes sense if it is running 45-50 minutes today, maybe.
14:11 Graham Plume 1411
14:12 Graham looks like its on long intervals
14:12 Michael OK. Scratch the 45-50 idea.

14:52 Rich Hi guest835082
14:53 steve Frump, BH while I was gone. Thats geyser watching
14:53 Rich At it's best?
14:56 steve So, a short BH indicator. Has that been happening lately?
14:56 Rich steve I got a single capture uploading now to FB, http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30519341&l=c53d7a14fa&id=1427016656
14:57 steve ty
14:59 steve Nice BH Rich. To bad the cam can't see Biscuit Basin, I wonder what s going on down there after Jims report on the list serve
15:01 Rich I'm still curious about what if anything has happended with Pump.
15:02 steve Pump? Has Punp been missing or changed?
15:03 Rich No way to know. no logger or posted eruption times that I can find.
15:03 Rich Being fairly regular and short intervals, I think it would be interesting to see.
15:04 Rich Just seems to me that it would be the first to reflect any affect.
15:05 steve I like Pump, usually pretty active, occasionallly 10-15 feet high, and like Plume often suprises people as they pass
15:06 Rich The swarm of earthquakes have been diminshing, wasn't any wiggle until after 08:00 mst this morning.
15:06 steve Is this a new earthquake swarm, not the one between OF and West Yellowstone? If so I was in the dark about it
15:07 Rich Still the same one.
15:07 steve ty
15:08 Rich I looked at the recording a little bit ago.

15:34 Graham Plume 1534
15:34 steve Glad to be wrong
15:36 steve Did Plume seem sorta weak to anyone else?
15:37 Graham looked fine to me
15:37 Graham just doing much longer intervals today
15:37 steve Ok, ty
15:38 Graham not much steam from Daisy, may have missed it
15:39 cb Wow...Bison
15:41 cb frisky

15:58 Graham um....yes of course
15:59 Ryan grrr >:( i had church
15:59 joe any girls wanna c2c?

16:03 Graham OF 1603
16:06 steve Well, may not in chuch, but a bit closer to heaven g
16:07 vw hi. been occupied. Steve, I am with you. I think of YNP as a big, open air church with lots to inspire me, more to humble me.
16:11 Ryan oh, i kno, ive never felt smaller than watching BH, of course seeing giant may change that
16:12 steve And then, I can dream for Steamboat
16:12 Ryan g
16:13 Ryan i dont even try to dream, cant imagine how incredible it must be!
16:14 steve I hope I live long enough

16:29 lc back tomorrow. for Beehive I hope.
16:29 lc good night all.
16:31 Ryan see ya lc
16:35 steve So, are we watching Sprinkler, or is that something on the other side of the river like Snake Eyes?
16:37 Graham I don't think you really see much from snake eyes
16:39 steve ty
16:40 Ryan snake eyes?
16:41 steve Snake Eyes is a little geyser, two holes just to the right of the boardwalk after you cross the bridge from Castle, between the boardwalk and Chimney Cone
16:42 Ryan Ahh, ok, very small?
16:43 steve It usually erupts to six inches to a foot, but I remember someone telling me four foot eruptions are possible, rare but possible
16:43 Ryan Ok, ty!
16:48 steve But I m still unsure what that little thing is erupting now and then over the edge of the hill
16:52 steve Maybe deleted teakettle?
16:52 Graham I think its something downstream
16:53 steve ok
16:56 steve Static cam shows a steam cloud downbasin
16:56 steve Hmm, or maybe not
16:56 Graham Grotto is going
16:57 steve ty

09:17 kcmule OF 0917
09:18 Ryan Incredible OF
09:18 kcmule if the wind blows right these winter eruptions can be some of the best
09:19 Ryan BTW: Next Beehive should be about 4:18am MST, +/- 2.5 hours possible one very early
09:19 Rich Wish I could turn the static cam and see the top of OF.

09:25 Ryan was an awesome eruption!
09:35 Ryan Sweet, FB quiz says im Grand Geyser, (Which Yellowstone Geyser are you?)
09:35 Ryan :) my fav
09:43 lc Rich, my 0658 call was Grand. sorry I was away and missed your post.
09:45 Ryan you know, the streaming cam is set now to show everything from Castle to Giantess, they could position the static cam like that too.
09:50 Rich I think the beginning OF was being showcased, so image was framed around OF.
09:50 Rich The only capture I got of BH this morning http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30520281&l=d972c6eee2&id=1427016656
09:55 Rich Hi Michael
09:56 Michael Hi. I se it's been a busy morning already.
09:56 Rich Very enjoyable. g
09:57 Michael Think we can get 3 Lion series in 3 days? Think positive...
09:58 Rich Let's go for IT!!
09:59 Rich There was one nice meow earlier.
10:00 Rich looking for the time
10:02 Rich A nice steam from Lion around 09:12
10:03 Michael It's best not to fall into that trap, Rich. Lion can splash and look promising for hours (days?) on end leading up to the initial eruption.
10:05 Rich I've been known to sit in the blowing snow for an 'unkown' BH eruption at ther first part of Oct 2009 when it went off 'regularity'. g
10:05 Rich ty, though
10:06 Rich A fan of lost causes? g
10:07 lc Rich, did you see I finally answered your question?
10:07 guest124967 10:07 Plume ie
10:07 Rich I must have missed it lc, but I'll reload the log.
10:08 Michael Oh, i don't mind waiting long hours for Lion. But I've given up looking for promising signs because I just can't find any. Even leaving to wait for Grand instead doesn't always help it go...
10:08 lc The 0658 call was Grand.
10:08 Rich I'll make the correction to the recap

11:12 Graham but just get Ryan to come over and shovel your car out, I hear hes good at it and hes young so he doesn't ache as much as the rest of us
11:13 Rich I think they should just drive Zambonis up and down the streets and melt the snow. g
11:13 Michael And smooth them out into a skating rink?
11:13 Rich well, maybe not that. lol
11:14 Rich But it might be a way to get to work, they do it in Holland, skate the canals.

11:47 Graham it has been happening. not happening to me now tho
11:48 kcmule u can change the protocol from http to tcp and viceversa, sometimes one works better
11:48 BobinGA Could be that World of Warcraft is stressing my home network. g

13:06 Rich Hi guest681802
13:11 Ryan ok, just finished programming all of the geysers for the first version of the sim, :B
13:12 Ryan my brain is mush
13:18 kcmule when is the next beta due
13:20 Ryan about a week or two
13:20 Ryan i hope
13:22 Rich Little Squirt?
13:22 kcmule cool
13:24 Ryan Graham called it this am Rich
13:24 Ryan I still have to put in people, boardwalks, buildings, plants animals, etc plus make it online too!
13:25 Ryan "meow" says Lion
13:31 Michael My video feed froze. Was that a Lion minor at 13:30 or just a very strong roar?
13:32 Ryan i didnt see it, i was afk
13:32 Ryan but i believe its abouty time for lion
13:32 Rich I only had one refresh with a significant Lion steam plume.
13:33 Ryan it be a grow
13:34 Ryan according to the MCoLE:
13:34 Ryan meow = surge of steam
13:34 Ryan growl = minor
13:34 Ryan roar = full blown eruption
13:34 Rich looking for a time now.
13:34 Ryan grr = steamphase
13:38 Michael OK. To me "roar" = the distinctive rush of forced steam that makes an audible noise if you're lucky enough to be in Yellowstone on that part of the boardwalk.
13:39 Ryan g
13:39 Ryan it was just somethin i made up as a joke one day
13:39 Ryan if im in ynp hearing it i dont care what u call it
13:39 Rich My Lion capture at 13:30:06, nothing at 13:28:35 or at 13:30:38
13:40 Michael Well, we certainly can't call it an eruption if nobody saw it erupt...
13:40 Rich Hi guest170192
13:40 Ryan no, minor perhaps
13:41 Michael As far as coming up with names for stuff, you would have been amazed at how many names people came up with to describe unpromising activity at Giant.
13:41 Ryan lol
13:41 Ryan id like to hear some
13:42 Michael plume 13:41ie
13:43 Michael Well, it started with "Bathtub." for those times that Mastiff filled with water, sloshed around for a couple of minutes, then drained without launching a hot period.
13:44 Ryan g
13:44 Ryan does it get better?
13:44 Michael If you mention a "bathtub" to anyone who's spent time at Giant they'll know what that means.
13:45 Ryan Lol, i saw one of those, kinda dissapointing
13:46 Ryan didnt kno they were called "Bathtubs" tho
13:47 Michael But after a while people get stir-crazy and start giving new names based on how high the water level got. So there were "washbasins" and "sinks" and "footbaths" and "buckets" and "shower-pans" and who knows what else.
13:47 Rich Here's my capture from 13:30 http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30520671&l=4a133bb6b6&id=1427016656
13:47 Ryan lol
13:47 Ryan Nice steam shot at OF
13:48 Ryan what i saw was actually in 2009, Bijou stopped, Mastiff filled, bubble, sloshed had some runoff, and then stopped and bijou was back on again >:(
13:49 Ryan steam puff from Lion again
13:49 Ryan r those DOGS or backpacks on the BW by OF
13:49 Michael Most of those terms were kind of an inside joke, but I think "Bathtub" was pretty standard.
13:50 Michael not sure. We'll see if/how they move.
13:50 Rich backpacks
13:50 Ryan k
13:50 Rich Unless someone has a blue dog
13:50 Ryan g, anything else for anyother geysers, Grand, BH, god forbid F&M
13:52 Ryan i propose renaming OF preplay splashes to "Ooh-aah!"s
13:52 Michael There's always lots of jargon and inside jokes for describing F&M. I haven't spent enough time there in the last decade to know what terms are currently in vogue.
13:52 Ryan ahh, when were you in YNP last?
13:53 Michael May 2008.
13:53 Ryan oh ok, ive only been there three times, 2001, 2003, and 2009
13:54 Ryan I hope when i begin college to go there and work for Xanterra in the summers
13:56 Michael More than a few geyser enthusiasts have gone that route.

15:36 Graham hello
15:41 ls good afternoon Graham.
15:41 Graham Castle 1541ie
15:43 Graham good news is that todays snow just made it all look pretty, covered over the dark s***my coating...at least thats all its donw so far
15:44 kcmule hi graham
15:45 Graham hello. so someone saw an early BH eruption in the dark?
15:48 kcmule 'big maybe' is what the transcript says (Ryan) but fwiw it has been pretty quiet at BH all day
15:51 Graham yeah I just read that
15:56 Graham well BH couldeasily not be seen in daylight today and tomorrow if it keeps up its ~20 hour intervals
16:02 kcmule yeesh, talk about a buzz kill... sorry, monday humor.
16:05 Graham Plume 1604
16:05 Graham OF 1605
16:06 kcmule nice dual for a split second there anyway
16:06 Graham lucky to see Plume before OF took off
16:10 kcmule i will bbs
16:12 Graham castle is a Major btw
16:15 Ryan Hi Graham, i was afk for a while
16:16 Ryan Yes i believe it was BH a split seconds worth of light enough to see a horizon and a black stripe about where beehive was (steam sillouetted by the back light) makes me guess it was BH, but couldve easily been something else
16:17 Graham k, thanks
16:17 Ryan But i dont think anything else in BHs area could make that much steam (except a Lion and NG major ;) )
17:03 Graham long quiet spell in the basin
17:05 Kent I was hoping for a big dump in the UGB today, but the OF benches are already clear :^(
17:06 Graham yeah its been a quiet snow year all over the mountains
17:07 Kent All winter we have said we still have time, but spring is almost here.
17:15 Ryan I know, SPRING ALMOST HERE! :)
17:16 Ryan Im ready for this snow to melt away and for the ground to bake in summer again

06:20 vw good morning Ryan.
06:20 vw I had the static view up and saw a bright light on one shot. looks like someone is walking around on the bw?
06:33 Ryan sorry v, was afk
06:33 Ryan I didnt see the shot of light g
06:33 vw Hi!
06:33 Ryan I saw one yesterday am tho and it appeared BH was erupting during it!
06:34 Ryan Oh, now I see the light
06:34 vw someone definitly out on the bw. saw light bobbing around on stream
06:34 Ryan Nice to see people out so early
06:34 vw I agree
06:35 vw they may have been watching OF today.
06:35 Ryan so hows your weather in Montana
06:35 vw too steamy to be sure, but have seen hints of a steam column indicating a possible eruption
06:35 vw cold!
06:35 vw not as much snow as back east, but cant seem to break the cold snap
06:35 Ryan lol us too they just cancelled school AGAIN like five minutes ago
06:36 vw oh no. you are going to have to make up all or most of those days sometime.
06:36 Ryan We went to school Presidents Day, two days from easter break and then two more in June i think
06:36 vw at least they are spreading them out.
06:37 Ryan But hey I saw on Tara Cross's FB a vide of "F&M Start 26 July 2009" It made me sad thinking hey i missed that one and everyone was screamin and crying at the start, you know what:
06:37 Ryan I wouldve been screamin and crying too!
06:38 vw i havent seen the vid. will check it out.
06:38 vw nice thing about geysers most of the time is you know they will erupt again. eventually.
06:38 Ryan it the back ground i hear " come on, come on, YES! Fan and Mortar! 1240, Fan and Mortar 1-2-4-0" Thats the call i heard on my radio while waiting for plume, I was so upset
06:39 Ryan But you know what Ive finally decided what i want to do for college:, well Ill PM you
06:40 vw k
06:43 vw there is our flashlight wielder! Hurray for them!
06:48 vw have to get moving. Have a good day!

07:46 Rich lol
07:46 Rich Sometimes it happens. g
07:47 Rich I think I saw Plume ?07:39:06ie wc
07:48 BB I thought it was Plume too on the static but I couldn't see it on the streaming.
07:48 Rich Lion was steaming just before OF also. But OF blocked it out.
07:48 BB I wasn't sure if it was just OF steam
07:48 Rich My luck it was OF steam. g
07:48 BB But that one frame DID look like Plume
07:48 BB The steam in the Lion area was from Little Cub I think
07:49 Rich So we wait an hour and see if Plume reappears.
07:49 BB It was pretty heavy, but on the streaming it looked like Little Cub
07:49 Rich ty, k
07:49 Rich Hi ls

07:50 BB I wasn't on that early today
07:51 Rich Yes
07:54 BB Just reviewed the captures. Now I think it probably was Plume.
07:54 BB OF steam is going to the right, and there is another column right where Plume should be
07:54 Rich Hi ls
07:55 Rich looks like the first one didn't make it to meebo.
07:56 Rich Where are those g'asses. g

09:59 Rich Hi guest9461777
09:59 steve hello
10:00 BB hi all
10:00 steve Forgot some work files, so here I am again
10:01 BB So that morning Plume was a Plume after all, Rich, and not just OF steam?
10:02 Rich From the interval times, looks like it.
10:02 Rich wb steve
10:02 Rich wb BB
10:04 Rich But apparently I missed the last Plume
10:04 Rich g
10:10 BB I couldn't find it either. Plume, I mean.
10:10 BB Cam was frozen for a few minutes, and OF steam was blowing in that direction
10:11 Rich Probably why I didn't see anything. g
10:12 BB Sometimes I can go back and find Plumes and Depressions that nobody called, based on later calls. Well, at least I think that is what I find *g*
10:12 Rich g
10:12 BB I started to write everything down and will check against GOSA data when it comes out
10:12 Rich Hind sight is great, when you know where to look at what time. g
10:13 BB If it is not just my imagination I might even post my findings here in the future
10:14 steve is that depression, or just overflow from depression?
10:16 steve Or the dwarf(s)
10:16 Rich I can't seem to hold the static cam, it keeps timing out.
10:17 steve Yea, Depression!
10:20 Rich I'm going to try for a higher speed from the ISP, brb
10:31 steve Off again to earn money to support my Yellowstone habit
10:45 Rich I think I made it back

16:28 Bill M what is the steam to the left of beehive there?
16:29 kcmule on the left of the bridge on the boardwalk is depression geyser
16:30 Bill M I'm thinking just out of frame and generating all that steam.
16:31 kcmule yep that's depression, by the people walking by
16:31 Bill M ok thanks
16:31 kcmule anytime
16:31 Bill M Looks like a nice day to be in the basin

16:43 Bill M quite nice today
16:44 Bill M very little wind
16:44 lc a couple walked up just as it started, stopped for a few seconds and walked on.
16:44 Bill M I grabbed the beehive time off the top of the screen. Is that the one everyone uses?
16:44 lc they did stop at Plume.
16:45 lc I think so, I used the one from the streaming cam that comes from my computer.
16:47 Bill M Now all we need is sound... LOL
16:48 lc g
16:49 lc I had only been on about 3 minutes when I saw the Indicator.

17:51 Graham ah, so 3 days?

17:52 vw g
17:52 Graham i dont need to go there to checkout snow
17:52 Graham but no geysers unless you go to Norris
17:52 vw i like to check out the quality of the snow G, not just the quantity!
17:52 Graham do the afternoon snowcoach tour...
17:53 vw need some quiet time. YNP, alone with the creatures sounds like a good balm.
17:53 Graham thought Castle was starting when I moved the cam
17:54 Graham yeah but there are geysers at Norris
17:55 vw I will probably try to get to Norris on opening weekend. I only went once last summer and then road closure made going that way not a good option.
18:00 vw for everybody, to the extent i can, i would love to meet you in YNP!

08:48 steve Good steamy morning
08:50 Rich Hi steve
08:59 Rich Hi sparekitty
08:59 sparekitty good morning, rich.
09:05 Rich I must have missed the last OF. Should have been around 08:25 by the prediction time. Oh, well.
09:06 sparekitty The streaming has been focused, until right now, on something over OF's right shoulder...
09:07 Rich Aurum?
09:08 sparekitty not sure. i'm not very good with the geysers over there.
09:08 guest124967 All I could see was steam
09:08 Rich Main geyser to the right of OF, close to OF is Anemone, back on Giantess slope is Aurum, then Giantess, Vault going to the right.
09:09 Rich Pump is also just to the right of OF but closer to the treeline.
09:30 kcmule 'poked a bison in a basin' ?
09:30 kcmule morning
09:31 kcmule oops my streaming cam has been going for over 24 hours
09:31 Rich wow
09:31 kcmule i think i used my bandwidth for the whole week
09:31 guest124967 I second that wow :-)
09:32 Rich oops, rationed bandwidth?
09:32 kcmule does the park foundation subsidize the streaming cam? been meaning to make a donation anyway
09:33 guest124967 I think the cam was donated by Canon USA
09:37 Rich No recall of any subsidizing of cams at YNP except Canon donating.
09:37 kcmule "This webcam is made possible by a donation from Canon U.S.A to the Yellowstone Park Foundation"
09:37 kcmule id be willing to guess the YPF pays for the ISP
09:41 Rich I believe the isp is a government connection.
09:41 guest124967 Department of the interior, or something
09:43 kcmule well, the gov't gets enough of my donations :)

15:03 Rich All I see is Pump and maybe early in the day Little Squirt.
15:04 Rich But that doesn't mean there isn't anything else, just that I don't see it. g
15:10 Rich I looked at the 09:00 captures, it looks to me like the steam from OF was being blown down behinded OF and formed the mass of steam.
15:11 Rich Plume 15:10:02ie wc
15:14 Ryan grrrrrrr ok
15:14 Rich There does seem to be steam being generated behind OF and to the left, not Plume, Teapot?
15:16 Rich From when I signed on around 08:20 there was lots of steam behind OF but I think that was from Of eruption around 08:15
15:18 Ryan probably
15:20 sparekitty hey ryan, how are you?
15:23 Ryan well except for the periodic loss of internet im great! you?
15:24 sparekitty here, same stuff, different day.

16:30 Graham maybe in a Marathon
16:30 ge In the Old Days, hope for a Giant hot period--maybe someday again
16:31 Graham well its still active...
16:32 ge but not like 3-5 years ago
16:34 Graham I know. its been 2 years now since I saw it, 2 years tomorrow...sigh
16:34 ge No more waiting in the cage :'(
16:35 Graham it does mean you can go and see other things now tho...
16:36 ge I'll be there in the spring if all goes well
16:36 Graham good, thats not too long to go
16:37 ge with low snow, maybe early fan & mortor
16:38 Graham theres the problem with seeing other things, you end up getting stuck down there too
16:38 ge I can't think of a better place to get stuck
17:13 RHBM Hi, y'all.
17:13 RHBM Bison!
17:13 Graham hello
17:15 RHBM i see biosn on streaming cam but not on static. What's up with that?
17:16 Graham Plume 1714 I think
17:16 Graham um..maybe they are pointing in different directions?
17:17 RHBM for sure. well, gtoaa run again!
17:17 Graham bye
17:20 kcmule i didnt see a darn thing today. one OF eruption, missed everything else
17:22 kcmule my punishment for leaving the streaming on all night i guess :S
17:23 Graham quiet right now
17:25 kcmule too bad, the lighting is really good
17:25 Graham I don't think theres any punishment for watching all night long
17:25 kcmule well... i left it on my work computer and went home
17:26 Graham ah, yeah you probably shouldn't have done that
17:27 kcmule usually theres some sort of glitch that stops it, but today i came in and the timer showed it was on for about 25 hours!
17:29 kcmule i decided i'll make a donation to YPF which is probably overdue... my only issue is then they spend it all on postage sending me paperwork asking for more
17:31 Graham yeah but they don't seem to mail me much, not compared to some other non-profits
17:33 kcmule well that will be my penance :) hope they send me more stickers tho, those are cool
17:39 Graham OF 1738
17:41 Graham that was a short
17:47 kcmule lol and i missed that too
17:50 Graham not your day

18:20 Graham aren't you going to the park?
18:20 Graham steam has been building at Daisy but not sure its ready
18:21 vw oh that! Am thinking about it, but north end only. different climate conditions!
18:23 Graham hehe so easy for you to dismiss, just like me and operas
18:23 Graham oh that, yeah another opera
18:24 vw I just rarely use the weather and conditions in the UGB to tell me what I will find at Mammoth or the Lamar.
18:24 vw you dont dismiss operas G! I know cuz I bug you about them all the time!
18:27 Graham got to build my stamina for next month
18:28 vw doing those excuse me, excuse me reps? :)
18:29 vw come in handy when you are trying to get to your seat
18:29 Graham got to practice applause
18:29 steve Opera reps?
18:29 Graham yep
18:29 vw oh yes, all that clapping
18:29 steve G
18:29 Graham I think I have 6 operas in 10 days?
18:30 vw well, I was late to the show here today, but it is still nice to catch a few glimpses of steam.
18:30 vw green with envy here G.
18:30 vw Have to go fix dinner.
18:30 vw have a good evening all!

February 19th, 2010

06:09 guest4321 Looks like we are going to start the day with streaming cam down :(
06:42 BB Lion was 06:37 i.e. when I logged on
06:42 BB I don't have the streaming cam either but no blue screen.
06:42 BB Looks like the encoder needs to be turned on
06:43 BB At least that's what I hope :)
06:46 guest4321 That is what I am hoping also.
07:20 BB Depression 07:18 i.e., I think. It has been steaming all morning, but now it looks like an eruption to me
07:29 BB OF 07:29 i.e.
07:30 BB hi cb
07:30 BB hi ls
07:30 cb Hi BB
07:30 cb Hi ls
07:30 cb ryan and guest
07:30 cb s
07:30 ls good morning BB, cb, Ryan, and guests
07:31 cb hum...encoder problems again?
07:31 BB Looks like it... I have been trying to reconnect for almost an hour, doesn't work so far
07:32 cb let me see what the problem is...brb
07:50 BB Static was stuck for some time, but I have three screenshots that look like Lion might have erupted again in the fog between 07:43 and 07:46
07:50 BB Not sure though, so better put a question mark behind that time, Rich
08:36 ls Lion 08:35ie
08:41 Rich Hi BdM
08:41 Rich Hi Ryan
08:41 BdM standby Hi, Rich & Ryan
08:41 Rich Hi guest124967
08:41 Rich Hi guest317842
08:41 Rich Hi guest4321
08:41 Rich Hi ls
08:48 BdM standby Anemone shows well this morning...
08:52 Rich Nice to have a little sunlight.
08:52 BdM standby Yepp, gives some punch to the picture...
08:53 guest4321 Stream up and working again!
08:54 Rich good
08:55 ls Hi Rich.
08:55 Rich Morning
08:57 BdM standby Someone has the stream this morning...
08:57 BdM standby OF 0857 wc
08:58 BdM standby WOW...gorgeous!
08:58 ls Lovely lighting.
08:58 BdM standby Classic.
09:00 BdM standby ...and OF is a long as it continues to play past 0900...
09:02 Rich Hi figre
09:09 Rich Hi BobinGA
09:11 BobinGA Hi Rich and all. Looks like a lovely day at YNP, maybe a little bit chilly (-7).
09:11 Rich Hi guest6048789
09:11 guest124967 Penta?
09:12 BdM standby Penat is over closer to Spasmodic, is it not? I think it would have a bigger steam cloud. i could be wrong.
09:12 guest124967 I see water bursts
09:13 BdM standby Ok - I am not, but that means nothing...
09:13 steve Morning all, nice to see sunlight
09:13 guest124967 Spasmodic is in the bottom right
09:13 BdM standby I see some bursting over in back...
09:13 BdM standby smallish
09:14 BdM standby I guess I did not think Penta was so hidden by trees.
09:15 guest124967 Graham Meech did point it out to me many moons ago.
09:17 Rich My first capture of the last OF http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30528440&l=6e82b08fdf&id=1427016656
09:17 BdM standby Could be another Lion soon, maybe...
09:22 guest4321 Lots of pauses on streaming. I hope this is not a portent of things to come?
09:30 kcmule Lion 09:30 ie
09:31 kcmule morning all
09:31 Rich Hi kcmule
09:31 Rich In like a 'Lion''?
09:32 kcmule g.. i missed everything yesterday today hopefully i make up for it
09:33 Rich Twin geysers??
09:37 Rich Hi sparekitty
09:37 sparekitty morning everyone! full house!
09:39 Rich Feb 19, 2010 recap Depression 07:18ie, Lion 06:37ie, ?07:43ie, 09:30ie, OF 07:29ie, 08:57,
09:39 sparekitty thx rich.
09:42 Rich Indicator?
09:42 Rich nope
09:43 Rich Lion ie and OF steaming http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30528440&l=6e82b08fdf&id=1427016656
09:46 Rich Who has a spotlight to shine on BHI so I can see. g
09:47 Rich Looks like BH is splashing.
09:53 Rich The Langoliers are coming!!!!
09:53 Rich Hi guest322328
09:56 Rich Hi Derek
09:56 Derek Hi All
09:57 Rich Hi guest919022
10:00 steve depresion?
10:00 Derek Nope
10:00 steve or maybe not
10:01 Derek Lil Cub
10:01 steve yep
10:02 steve O, well, to work, bye
10:03 Rich bye steve
10:03 guest4321 Neat. We just got to see both cams shadows on streaming
10:03 Derek Yep
10:04 Derek Live at top, Static underneath
10:04 guest4321 I hope live holds out until the new one arrives
10:12 Derek What we need is a good video engineer that would be prepared fix the existing cam for us, for free. :-)
10:19 Rich N. Goggles?
10:19 Derek No chance LOL
10:19 Derek Just a roar from Lion
10:20 Rich k
10:20 Rich and another one.
10:21 Derek ie this time
10:22 Derek Nope it died
10:22 Derek Was a minor minor LOL
10:22 Rich 15m
10:23 Derek I'm zoomed up on the Lion BH area
10:23 BdM standby North Goggles is quite far to Lion's right, and not aligned with Lion's cone. They should be easily distinguishable from each other.
10:24 Derek Yep, Graham took some nice pictures of it.
10:24 BdM standby I do recall this :-)
10:24 Derek Hi Bruce
10:24 Rich Hi guest56729
10:25 BdM standby Hello :)>-
10:25 Derek I take it you didn't like my Bear advert clip LOL
10:25 ge hi, all
10:25 Rich Hi ge
10:26 BdM standby ha! It was funny but kind of weird. My wife was put off by it - she has great concerns about bear-human interactions haivng bad outcomes for the bears, and this trumps the humor, for her.
10:27 Derek Aparently the costume was supplied by the Hensen Muppet co
10:27 BdM standby :-) They do good work
10:27 Derek And the guy inside was an american
10:28 BdM standby Well, they don't have bears in the UK right?
10:28 Derek It was actually filmed in Balmoral, Scotland
10:28 BdM standby I guess they could have gotten a Russian guy...
10:28 BdM standby or gal...
10:29 Derek But that scene could easily resemble somewhere in YNP
10:29 BdM standby Yellowstone has many scenes of riparian and pastoral loveliness, featuring large toothed critters
10:30 Derek And big Mooses
10:30 BdM standby Does Scotland have large toothed critters?
10:30 BdM standby ;-)
10:30 Derek No wild bears
10:30 Derek Our only wild dog is the Fox
10:31 BdM standby Ah - smallish toothed critters...
10:31 BdM standby Your biggest native mammals are probably deer of come variety?
10:32 BdM standby some
10:32 Derek Yes there are wild dear
10:35 Rich Hi BB
10:35 BB Hi Rich
10:35 BB and hi all - wow, I think I never saw so many people in here before
10:36 Rich I believe 18 has been our max so far.
10:36 BB Probably when Giantess erupted... I was asleep then
10:36 BB And I am right on time for OF
10:36 Rich I believe it was one of the Giantess.
10:36 Rich And Lion
10:36 BB OF 10:36 i.e.
10:38 Rich Static cam is frozen for me. :(
10:39 BB It was frozen most during most of the eruption for me too.
10:39 BB But the first two frames were interesting - one in full sunlight, in the second a cloud had moved in
10:39 BB Did you get that?
10:40 Rich Lois is capturing. ty

10:57 Rich Grand?
10:58 Derek Posible
10:58 Derek Steam is blowing this way so can't see water
10:59 Derek I would say yes
11:00 Derek Rich, I didn't see the start, so it's your call.
11:03 kcmule even w/o the water, that still looks pretty darn cool
11:04 Derek Maybe Rich will analyse the static captures.
11:04 Rich Hi GreekD

11:37 guest124967 Moving to right of Lion group
11:44 guest4321 White stuff coming out of Indicator?
11:49 guest4321 Perhaps just an illusion.

12:11 Rich Lens cloth please.
12:24 Rich Nice steamers
12:43 steve So, is it time for Lion, or did the series end? Any Idea when this series started?
12:46 Rich I believe this Lion series has ended, last eruption was at 09:30.
12:47 steve Well then, let me be the first to predict North Goggles at about 1342.
12:47 Rich The recap has a 10:3, that never happened, I was just anticipating. g
12:48 steve O, well, I kinda knen North Goggles wouldn
12:49 steve co operater, but if it did erupt, I d be willing to take the credit
12:49 Rich lol
12:50 steve It does look like the bubblers are on at BH, maybe a BH before dark? Hope springs eternal
12:51 Rich  I'm not able to see the bubblers on the static cam.
12:52 steve Well, I think I see steam on the streaming cam, but I have been known to be wrong (frequently).
12:52 Rich As have we all.
12:52 Rich g
12:53 steve I was just here for a short fix, back to work. My how I like this better than work

15:51 Ryan i was wonderingwho had not just a 4digit guest num but that the num was 4321 (4-3-2-1)
15:51 guest4321 It was automatic. Not my doing.
15:51 Ryan i kno, its pretty cool tho
15:52 cb I like that #! would keep it also!
15:52 cb I thought it was a purposeful guest #
15:52 guest4321 Nope
15:56 guest4321 I think if I had done it myself I would be the alphabetic "g" spot.
16:04 kcmule is that oblong?
16:07 Graham hello
16:07 kcmule evening graham
16:08 Graham wgats going on?
16:09 kcmule no BH yet. im wondering if that is oblong since we had grand around 11am
16:10 Graham ok, thanks
16:10 kcmule im not as sharp with those 'behind the trees' geysers, but im learning
16:11 Graham not sure there was enough steam for Oblong but I have not been wayching much
16:14 Graham Plume 1613
16:15 kcmule i think u get the streaming feed a good 30 secs before i do

16:30 Graham yep, good catch
16:42 Graham Pat had Depression 0718ie, 1008ie, 1229ie, 1510ie, Riverside 1407ie,
16:44 Graham OF 1644
16:44 Graham a short
16:45 Graham hum, very short or big preplay
16:47 vw good evening all.
16:47 sparekitty hey vw! how's everything?
16:47 vw hi sk! busy. but home a little bit early tonight. You?
16:47 Graham evening vw
16:47 vw B excited about graduating?
16:48 sparekitty busy. coldish and rainy in pasadena.
16:48 vw Hi G. Looks too quiet. Kick up some steam!
16:48 vw same here sk.
16:48 Graham we just had a huge preplay from OF
16:48 sparekitty she's not all that excited about graduating, but man is she excited about going to rocky!
16:48 vw out of time? see steam coming at you
16:48 Graham its Friday, so just relaxing. finally made it to the end of the week
16:48 vw yahoo
16:49 vw need to grab a soda. brb
16:51 vw back. anybody else having trouble with black screen?
16:52 sparekitty no trouble here at the moment.
16:52 vw gets tiring having to reset
16:52 kcmule ive been having terrible buffering issues all afternoon on streaming
16:52 vw thanks kc. nice to know i am not alone
16:53 vw mine stops, think it is trying to buffer and then goes out. oh well.
16:53 vw Depression 1653?
16:54 kcmule u can try forcing it to http, sometimes that helps
16:54 Graham OF for real 1654
16:55 Graham too early for Depression
16:55 Graham maybe another 30min
16:55 vw lots of big steam from it G. now we will lose the picture!
16:55 Graham put on the rain gear
16:55 kcmule holy steamy
16:55 Graham frozen already
16:56 Ryan wow
16:57 vw it really isnt that cold at OF. 23 F at 1615 per NOAA
16:58 vw need a little antifreeze on that wiper
17:01 Graham are they going to move the cam?
17:02 vw would think that most anywhere they move it moisture could be a problem. either geyser steam or weather.
17:04 Ryan they r moving the cam?
17:06 guest4321 I think when the new VC is finished they are supposed to move the cam. Don't know where I got this idea from. May not be the truth.
17:07 Graham I hve heard that they will move the cams and they won't move the cams
17:07 Graham pick one
17:07 Graham or more
17:08 guest4321 One from column A and one from column B :)
17:08 Graham maybe they will add cams?
17:08 Graham make your job harder vw with multiple cams to move
17:09 Ryan one at f&m
17:09 Graham yeah save from having to go down there
17:09 vw better to learn now than when set in my ways!
17:10 vw it would be nice to have something, even a fixed cam, focused down basin
17:12 Ryan or one on the hill above the down basin to see the whole area
17:16 vw 81 continuous days with snow on the ground in the Billings area.
17:17 Graham i didnt think you had that much
17:18 vw we havent had that much snow, but we havent had our normal periods with warm weather either. its just not melting.
17:18 Graham 14 days here but its melting quite well now
17:18 Graham ah, ok. warmed up to mid 40s here today.
17:19 vw we havent had much over 40 for a long time. very odd for us. craving a 60 degree day or two, would be thrilled with even just 50.
17:20 Graham looks like the ice is evaporating
17:25 kcmule sublimation :)
17:26 Ryan like dry ice?
17:31 kcmule i reckon
17:34 nice hey any girls wanna get on cam
17:36 Ryan those ppl get annoying quickly
17:37 kcmule come for the girls stay for the geysers
17:40 vw Lots of steam from Anenome and Pump this evening
17:46 Graham Depression 1746ie
17:57 kcmule have a great weekend everyone

09:00 Rich Hi guest 936190
09:01 sparekitty hi rich. i missed BH again.
09:02 Rich Mee too. g
09:03 Rich Looks like cb was teh onlly one that got to see it.
09:03 sparekitty that's the beauty of geysers though, they will always erupt again.
09:04 Rich lol, most of them anyway.
09:04 sparekitty have you spent much time observing steamboat
09:05 Rich I don't know that I've ever even seen where steamboat is located.
09:05 sparekitty norris geyser basin
09:05 sparekitty near porcelin basing
09:05 sparekitty basin
09:06 Rich Lion ie 09:05:05 ie
09:07 Rich I think I've only been to Norris basin a couple of times.
09:07 Rich The year before the fire and then again a couple of years after the fire.
09:08 Rich Hi Michael
09:08 Rich Hi guest124967
09:08 guest124967 Hi
09:08 sparekitty norris was one of my favorite places for 10 years. ecchinus geyser was amazing to watch. and then, many of the features there either went dormant or erratic.
09:09 Rich The first time I remember being there, the thermal feature was just opening up in the corner of the parking lot.
09:11 sparekitty one time i visited, at the beginning of the week the parking lot was fine and at the end of the week a thermal feature had broken through. amazing!
09:12 sparekitty and one time we went the board walk (again at norris) was open one day and closed the next, due to increasing thermal activity.
09:12 Rich We must have crossed paths back then. g
09:13 sparekitty entirely possible! i visited with my girls at least yearly from 94 to 2005
09:13 Michael I remember the evolution of "Bastille Geyser" back in 199x (can't remember the exact year).
09:13 sparekitty where is bastille?
09:13 Michael Grand? 9:13
09:14 Rich Would have been Lois and her youngest boy and myself.
09:14 Michael Back basin North of Pearl.
09:15 Rich Out by Porkchop
09:16 Michael Yes. I haven't been out there in a while so I can't remember what other reference points are out there.
09:16 sparekitty thanks. i definitely know where pork chop though black pearl is coming to mind rather thanpearl
09:17 Rich TSB pg294 #68
09:17 sparekitty i've never invested in scott's book.
09:18 Michael Speaking of Porkchop, I remember it's loud perpetual steam-phase days. Would have loved to see the 1989 explosion.
09:19 sparekitty i used to freak myself out, wondering what i would do if something exploded while i was there with two small kids. kinda silly...
09:19 Rich Sounds like a good Mom to me.
09:20 sparekitty thx rich.
09:21 Rich 7m
09:21 Rich Hi BobinGA
09:21 Michael Dangit! How did I screw up my "it's" grammar? And now it's in the permanent record...
09:22 BobinGA Hi Rich and All, Looks like a snowy day in the park.
09:22 Rich We blame those errors on moose-itis. g
09:23 sparekitty fortunately, michael, we're not big on grammar. no sweat!
09:23 Rich Hi cb
09:23 cb hi ya rich
09:23 cb how u?
09:23 Rich I can't tell if 'Grand' is still going on not.
09:24 Rich Cold. there be frost on the cars thismorning.
09:24 cb cold!!!
09:24 Rich Yep
09:24 Rich And yesterday it was tshirt and shorts weather.
09:25 cb Looks like depression over thar
09:25 guest124967 Yep
09:25 cb weird weather rich
09:25 Michael Depression 9:24ie then.
09:25 Rich yep
09:25 Rich ty Michael
09:26 cb ty michael
09:28 Michael I'm pretty confident that was Grand before, just from the way the steam cloud went up. But my static froze for a few minutes so I don't know whether it lasted 6m or 10m.
09:29 Rich I lost track of the column of steam at 8m
09:31 Rich I'm checking captures now.
09:33 Rich I haven't gotten use to the new water spots on the static cam, seems to be quite a lot of new spots right at Grand area.
09:34 Rich OF 09:33:29ie
09:36 BobinGA Drat, black screen on the streaming cam.
09:37 guest4321 I still have streaming
09:37 Rich Best I can tell on 'Grand' is a little over 8m.
09:37 Michael As do I though the connection has fits and starts.
09:37 Rich Hi guest4321
09:38 BobinGA Must be me, the independent feed is off and on. I will log out and back ... there it is, but jumping instead of streaming.
09:38 Rich Static cam is frozen for me now.
09:39 Rich brb, time to shoot the cat. g
09:39 Michael In any case I need to run off now. Hope the Lion series keeps everyone company through the day, and the cameras don't frost up too badly.
09:41 Rich bye Michael
09:41 Rich b
09:41 guest4321 Looks like both lens covers could use a bit of buff & polish.
09:43 Rich At least they need filters that can be change when the sinter build up makes viewing difficult.
09:47 guest4321 Not my call, and I appreciate all the cam people's work, but we need a ranger (or volunteer) on a ladder on a regular basis.
09:51 Rich Location on the Bison?
09:53 Rich guest4321, there is a wiper blade on the streaming cam. CC can operate it remotely.
09:54 Rich And usually someone makes the trip down from Mammoth a couple of times a winter to clean the lenses.
09:55 princes??? hi
09:55 Rich Hi princes???
09:55 princes??? hey'
09:56 Derek I'm not controlling the cam right now it's VW, but I understand the VC supervisor wont allow any of her staff to climb ladders. Health and safety issues etc.
09:56 princes??? k bye'
09:58 Derek Bison are down in the valley to the left of Lion
09:58 Rich ty
09:59 Rich Becoming a regular haunt for them.
09:59 Rich I think I see my black spots moving. g
10:04 Rich Note for Michael: Bastille formed on July 14, 1992, vents sealed in 1995.
10:05 Rich We should be coming up on a Lion.

07:12 guest4321 No streamng at 0712
07:14 guest4321 OF 0713 ie wc
07:22 guest4321 Streaming at 0722
07:24 BB Hi guest4321... do I remember correctly that you are Kent?
07:24 BB Static cam just went black
07:26 guest4321 I B Kent
07:27 guest4321 Parking Lot is working but Static is black for me also
07:27 BB My last capture is 07:21:56. Next frame was black.
07:29 guest4321 My static is still refreshing, just no picture
07:29 BB Yes, same here
07:34 guest4321 Daisy 0732 wc ?
07:39 guest4321 BB was that Castle and not Daisy?
07:42 BB Sorry, I wasn't paying attention
07:43 guest4321 I shouldn't call anything but OF anyway:)
07:46 BB That's why I capture everything and compare it to the GOSA data later on... but that doesn't help with Castle and Daisy, of course
08:34 guest124967 08:34 Plume
08:36 Rich Hi 994943
08:36 Rich hi guest124967
08:36 guest124967 Hi

08:38 Rich g
08:38 guest124967 Stream is OK though :-)
08:39 Rich The stutter from yesterday stop?
08:39 guest124967 I didn't see that
08:41 Ryan Hi Rich
08:41 Ryan :O no static cam? (skull)
08:42 Rich Several people reported the streaming jumping not smooth flow.
08:42 Ryan Hi 994943
08:42 Rich No static cam
08:42 Ryan Hi guest124967
08:42 Rich Hi Ryan
08:42 Ryan how loong has it been out, it was on earlier around 730
08:43 Rich I just arrived about 15m ago.
08:43 Rich was black then.
08:43 guest124967 I've been watching the stream so I didn't know the static was down
08:43 Rich I think the problem is in the park, getting time stamp refresh.
08:44 Rich It isn't frozen.
08:44 Ryan y r they resfreshing the time stamp?
08:44 Rich So signal is getting out of the park.
08:44 Ryan OH yes ok i got it
08:44 Rich Just no image.
08:44 Ryan cam is malfunctioning then
08:45 Ryan cause the cam prob takes a pic, sends it to a computer, computer puts the stamp on it then sends it out to the world
08:45 Ryan Cam just aint taking a picture then
08:45 Rich Looks to be someplace between VC computer out thru the cam.
08:45 Rich Could be the capture program.
08:46 Ryan maybe someone unplugged it and forgot to replug it in
08:46 guest124967 Maybe an animal has chewed the cable :-)
08:46 Rich Should have some change if that is the problem when VC opens.
08:46 Rich Hi ls
08:46 Ryan Hi ls
08:46 Ryan VC opens at 8 i believe R
08:47 Ryan 8 or nine
08:47 Rich I think 9 in winter
08:47 Ryan ok so like 20mins maybe it will change
08:47 Rich close at 5
08:48 Rich We can hope, otherwise I'll be forced to bring out the crystal ball. g
08:48 Ryan i thought it opens at 8 closes at 6 the n close at 8 in the summer
08:48 Ryan g
08:48 Rich Maybe, the prediction time has been updated.
08:48 Rich Time for OF now
08:48 Ryan then VC is open
08:49 Ryan but they dont know theres an issue
08:49 Rich At least someone is at home. g

09:04 guest124967 Hey Rich, I wish you could see this

09:05 guest124967 It's Penta and I can see water jets
09:05 Rich cool
09:10 Rich Note for BB: Ralph Taylor confirmed the 1/30/2010 Beehive eruptions at 00:26.
09:10 Rich Hi sparekitty
09:10 sparekitty hi rich!
09:10 sparekitty so is static down?
09:11 Rich We lost it earlier. Don't know the exact time.
09:11 Rich I've been here about an hour, and it has been black.
09:11 Rich Streaming is up.
09:11 sparekitty that's too bad. whatever is on streaming is lovely.
09:12 sparekitty it looks very COLD.
09:13 sparekitty what a lovely scence! bison, blue sky, geysers.
09:13 sparekitty too bad i can't spell.
09:13 guest124967 Something big in the Oblong/Grand area
09:13 Rich did it just start?
09:14 guest124967 Just noticed it
09:14 Rich IF it quits in about 6m, Oblong. If it goes 8m-10 at least Grand.
09:16 guest124967 Stream frozen here
09:16 Rich I just looked out the kitchen window, frost on the car port.
09:18 sparekitty streaming cam fine here.
09:19 Rich brb, time to shoot the cat
09:20 Rich b
09:20 guest124967 I'm getting the stream on the direct link but not on this room page
09:20 sparekitty all is well in the meebo room for me, for the moment at least.
09:21 guest124967 Very strange, here it just says buffering
09:31 sparekitty definitely less than smart to walk to so close to the bison
09:32 guest124967 Unless they enjoy getting gored

13:16 Rich hi Michael
13:17 Michael Hi, I just looked over Ralph Taylor's Beehive data up to mid-February.
13:18 Michael It is erratic enough that I would think twice about waiting for it in person. Range of 9-31 hours. Quite a few in the 10-11 range but plenty scattered between 14-20 as well.
13:19 Michael That 31-hour interval is an outlier, but not a typo.
13:19 Michael The Jan. 30 giantess didn't provoke any response that I could tell.
13:19 Michael Old Faithful 13:19
13:19 Rich Definitely wouldn't plan a trip hoping to see Beehive.
13:24 Michael If seeing Beehive is your main goal, you can do it. But it won't make your life easy.
13:26 Michael OK, was that Oblong or Turban down there?
13:27 Rich I'm flying blind today, Michael, no static cam.
13:27 vw Hi Michael. sorry to miss your entrance. think we were seeing a turban cycle, but also something else down basin. two different plumes of steam
13:29 Michael Thanks. I'm not watching much (streaming gets keeps getting stuck) so I don't have a feel for today's steam clouds.
13:29 vw me either!
13:33 ranchoooooo girls wanna see my **** ??? pm me...
13:43 Rich Hi BobinGA
13:50 BobinGA Hi was reading the log, looks like problems with both cams all day. Too bad.:(

12:33 BobinGA Hello again
12:35 Rich I think the static cam is being run by CBS.
12:35 BobinGA Wow lots going on, and the cam having problems?
12:35 Rich Static cam was online for about an hour this morning.
12:36 Rich Been in black out eversince about 07:26
12:37 BobinGA Streaming cam is swinging from one eruption to another, freezing, going black - lots of fun.
12:37 Rich Hi guest755522
12:44 Rich Lois just informed me it is NBC not CBS that is doing the blackouts on TV, tells you how much I've been watching. lol
12:45 BobinGA Both of the Mamoths and Mt Washburn static cams seem to be OK. Are their feeds different from the OF static?
12:49 Rich There is signal being generated from OF VC, the time/date/ prediction stamp changes, just no cam image getting thru.
13:15 Lethalbro1 ill jack off on cam for nudes or show me **** on cam
13:19 BobinGA Maybe someone hung their hat on the lens. :)
13:20 Rich Solar Eclipse in Wyoming? g

14:43 Rich the only place I can find where you are able to leave a msg is under Meebo Support. You can not join the Meebo Forums due to spamming problems.
14:44 Rich I think there is a Catch 22 there someplace. g

15:14 kcmule i got an error when i posted that, let me know if it all came out ok
15:15 sparekitty all i saw was that the following steps were helpful. no steps showed up though.
15:22 kcmule Right click the video window, select Options. Go to network tab. Uncheck both RTSP/UDP and RTSP/TCP, HTTP should be checked.
15:23 kcmule Click Apply and OK, then re-load the entire web page. Right click Statistics, go to Advanced Tab. Under 'Connection' verify Protocol: HTTP.
15:26 kcmule last step should say 'Right click the video window, select Statistics... etc'

07:38 BB Not far by MT standards g
07:38 vw :)
07:39 BB But during the work week and with my son coming home, I can't squeeze it in
07:39 BB And I sold my car last year, we have good public transportation, but it takes forever to go there by train
07:39 BB So I go on the weekend, but if he runs into trouble during the week he has to call
07:40 vw soon your son will be driving and you can send him!
07:40 BB Soon is in eight years, vw. No driving with 16 years in Germany
07:40 BB I think they may get a licence when they are 17, but you have to be with them in the car until they turn 18
07:41 vw that would never hold in MT! us parents would probably revolt!
07:41 BB Yes, but Berlin is a big, big city, and public transpo is good... very different from MT
07:42 BB This is why I could sell my car... my son is big enough to take buses and trains to wherever he wants to go... I don't have to drive him around anymore
07:43 vw my son will have his license in about 6 months. I am looking forward to it except for the increase in my insurance
07:43 vw hi jp. didnt see you come in with all my chatting.
07:45 jp no problem I'm just lhanging around watching the streaming cam
07:45 vw lotsa steam this am. pretty, but lots of it.
07:46 vw NOAA says -8 at OF
07:47 vw hi guests!
07:47 vw my fingers are too slow this morning to type in all those numbers...
07:48 jp Is the steam between OF and Giantess the Anemones
07:48 vw Anemone is steaming this morning.
07:48 jp ok
07:48 guest851735 Good morning vw. Lookk like staric did a Lazaris
07:48 guest851735 Lazarus
07:49 vw for now. lets hope it is a long reawakening!
07:49 guest851735 No idea how long Lazarus stayed awake:)
07:50 BB It has been running almost half an hour longer than the last two days... I hope it stays this way
07:50 vw have to admit the problems with the cams is driving me nuts. either the signal or my browsers keep going black. keep my curser on the arrow to restart it.
07:51 vw hmmm. no biblical scholar here, but dont think we ever knew about Lazarus! we can hope for a long second chance!
07:52 vw puffs from BH
07:52 BB just checked Wikipedia... there seem to be different legends but he seems to have lived on for years and years
07:52 vw good! lets hope the cams mimic that.
07:52 guest851735 BB, were you able to see anything on your captures?
07:53 BB About what?
07:53 BB Or do you mean this night?
07:53 BB Just OF
07:53 guest851735 Thanks
07:54 BB Still to dark to see other geysers, though I could clearly see the trees
07:54 BB But OF steam was blowing all over the place, impossible to tell if there was anything else going on
07:54 vw BB, how much additional light do you think happens because of reflection off of snow?
07:54 vw although there isnt really enough snow in the basin these days.... :(
07:55 BB It does help... full moon is on Sunday, I think. I have never seen so much so many days in advance
07:55 BB Well, okay this is about the fourth full moon I have been watching... but still
07:56 vw I dont know about the Park, but our forecast for the weekend is for just partly cloudy skies. may be good viewing for you
07:58 BB I am really euphoric after it turned out that I really saw BH in the middle of the darkness, when no one else could see it in the captures... I am highly motivated :)
07:59 vw when my dogs get me up in the middle of the night this weekend I may join you BB
08:00 BB please do so... it was fun when Giantess erupted, and many people showed up at the strangest times
08:02 Rich Must be playing a movie today. g
08:02 Rich Hi 994943
08:02 Rich Hi BB
08:02 Rich Hi jp
08:02 Rich hi vw
08:02 BB Hi Rich

08:02 Rich Hi guest851735
08:03 Rich Hi guest919022
08:03 Rich Such a nice sight for sore eyes.
08:04 guest851735 Good morning Rich.
08:05 Rich Hello
08:05 vw good morning R.
08:05 vw splashing at BH!
08:05 vw maybe, maybe
08:05 Rich Great!!
08:06 BB I have been trying to leave for at least ten minutes... can't as long as BH is splashing
08:06 vw but remember R, when it comes to geysers I am an eternal optimist
08:06 Rich Must not miss it.
08:07 Rich lol
08:07 Rich I'm sitting on cushion. g
08:07 Rich Blanket wrapped around me.
08:07 vw waiting for BH, shouldnt that be sitting on pins and needles R?
08:08 Rich Been sitting on those so long, they've become part of me. g
08:08 vw oooh, prickly!
08:08 Rich And here I thought I was sitting on my golf shoes.
08:11 vw I have missed most of the recent BHs. Have there been long Indicators?
08:12 vw this is looking good!
08:12 Rich No, at least the ones that have been seen.
08:12 BB The last one was the one on Sunday that took everyone by surprise, I think.
08:12 BB No indicator seen then
08:14 vw I saw the end of that BH
08:14 Rich Since the 14th there have only been 2 reported indicators and they were only about 4m long ie.
08:14 vw so trying to get some work done thinking i will have a heads up would not be a wise thing...
08:16 Rich vw, I have posted Feb 2010 eruption logs to the Resource Page/Log Archive page...
08:16 Rich Current thru yesterday
08:16 Rich All the reported eruptions times from the chatroom.
08:17 vw Thanks R. I admit i havent been good about following times. with summer approaching time to restart that habit

08:33 Rich Was that PLH next to OF during eruption?
08:34 BB I really do have to get some stuff done... tell BH to wait another hour, I will try to be back by then

09:39 steve So, if I read correctly, no BH yet but we do have splashing

10:01 (rapper) roflmao
10:01 Kent We are an easily amused crowd
10:02 BB Otherwise waiting for geysers to erupt would probably drive us crazy
10:02 (rapper) OMG..!! I needed that laughter!!
10:02 (emo) And we spend our free time watching water boil out of the ground.
10:02 (rapper) OF 1002 ie

06:35 Kent Hi cb
06:35 cb Did that look like OF on the static to you?
06:35 BB at work Yes, it did
06:35 BB at work 06:26 i.e., I think
06:36 cb I thought it might have been. I just opened up the static and was the first image that came up
06:36 BB at work And I am just trying to figure out if there was a Lion before that... checking captures
06:37 BB at work Lion might have been 06:23 i.e.
06:37 BB at work Not sure, though, so better put a question mark next to it, Rich.
06:37 BB at work Unless we see it again in an hour
06:37 cb thank you bb.....read your log. more snow for you, yicks
06:38 BB at work Yes, I couldn't believe it
06:38 BB at work Friday it is supposed to get rather warm, about 10 °C, and then more snow on Saturday.... ugh
06:39 cb old man winter has his crip on you all
06:39 BB at work That would be 50 F... then back to snow is pretty bad... I was hoping for spring flowers

16:27 Graham hello
16:28 cb Hi Graham
16:28 cb how u?
16:28 Graham doing good thanks. is Daisy due?
16:29 cb I think so....?!?
16:29 cb gets looking very steamy then petters off
16:31 Graham good to see BH erupted
16:31 cb yes this am. have a good chance for grand also tonight
16:32 Graham Pat also saw Aurum 1001 (water sighted)Plume 1--------Oblong 1255
16:33 cb ahhh Ty! I missed the plume!
16:34 Graham probably 2 of them
16:34 cb yes
16:34 cb was a bit on the tardy side this afternoon
16:35 Graham ah. happens sometimes
16:35 guest1069651 any girls?
16:38 kcmule hi graham hi cb
16:38 Graham nice day in the park
16:38 cb Hi kc
16:39 kcmule busy day for me at work so ive been in lurk mode today
16:39 cb good to be busy at work....makes the day fly by faster
16:40 kcmule makes my hair fall out faster too :)
16:40 cb lol
16:42 Graham I cant remember what happened at work today...must have been a busy day!
16:43 Graham or so quiet I slept through it
16:44 cb I say busy....
16:44 Graham yeah I don't feel all nice and relaxed
16:44 cb as you would if had a nice nap
16:45 cb nap sounds really good right now...LOL
16:47 cb that is so strange when the feed goes on high spreed
16:50 Graham I must have missed that, was sending my schedule to CC
16:58 cb OF 16588
16:58 cb OF 1658
16:58 cb heavy fingers today
17:08 Graham looks like Daisy is close
17:09 cb thinkin so...have my eye on the static for plume
17:09 cb I like Daisy at the time of the day
17:09 cb athis
17:09 kcmule wind can delay daisy, or so the theory goes?
17:11 Graham yeah but I am not sure the theory is backed by fact kc
17:12 kcmule that would be tough to prove, since there can be no 'control' in the experiment. interesting tho
17:13 Graham just need the wind speed at Daisy over time to do the amalysis
17:13 Graham my limited data says it doesn't care about the wind
17:15 kcmule if i recall she is one of the most sensitive geysers to earthquakes
17:17 Graham yeah that got everyone excited with the swarm and I think it did shorten up but I should look at the data to see if it was for real
17:17 cb Daisy 1717
17:17 Graham lets get it down to 100min and see if SPlendid wants to play too
17:17 Graham yeah
17:17 Graham nice
17:18 cb yes the lovely sun play on the steam
17:18 kcmule very nicely lit
17:21 Graham Plume 1720
17:21 cb ty
17:21 cb OPPS!!1
17:21 Graham hehe
17:22 Graham maybe get one before dark
17:23 cb got a good shot of the ladies!!
17:23 cb but wasn't what I was aiming for
17:24 Graham hard to get to plume in time. I would like the preset back
17:24 cb didn't know there had been one! yes that would be nice
17:25 Graham they took Plume away and added Daisy and Castle. They could swap Plume for Indicator
17:25 Graham you can always get to the Ind via BH
17:26 Graham and it lasts longer than Plume
17:26 cb good Idea!!
17:26 cb looking for the coyote
17:27 cb or bison...or griz
17:27 Graham not too much there recently
17:28 cb yep
17:28 kcmule did i just see him sneak by?
17:28 cb there he was
17:29 cb behind sc

February 26th, 2010

00:59 BB at work OF was 00:51 i.e.
01:00 BB at work Visibility is great so far, hope it stays this way
01:35 BB at work Lion was 01:26 i.e.
01:35 BB at work I was hoping for a Lion series through the night, hope there will be a few more
01:36 BB at work It probably wasn't an initial, it looked rather weak to me... hope it wasn't the last one
02:38 BB at work OF was 02:24 i.e.
02:38 BB at work hi vw
02:38 vw Hi BB. wondered if I would see you
02:38 vw you have gotten really good at seeing these things in the dark!
02:38 BB at work Constant practice, I guess *g*
02:38 BB at work And capturing
02:39 BB at work It is much easier to see if you can go back and forth in the captures until you are sure
02:39 vw it will be strange for you to actually see them live and in daylight!
02:40 BB at work I don't know about strange... but I haven't seen another geyser in the UGB in eruption than OF
02:40 vw oh, they you will be in for a treat!
02:40 BB at work I must have seen something in Black Sand or Biscuit Basin in 1996 because I took a picture
02:40 BB at work but can't remember anything except OF
02:41 vw we tend to dismiss it on this page, but OF is beautiful
02:41 BB at work I like OF... just not when it gets in the way of another geyser... like with BH yesterday
02:42 BB at work Visibility is getting worse now
02:42 vw I saw that in the logs. Was most of BH missed?
02:42 BB at work I think so
02:42 BB at work I didn't watch, but I have captures
02:42 BB at work OF steam was everywhere, not very impressive
02:44 vw do you have your capture program both at work and home?
02:44 BB at work Yes. If I had to capture manually, I would never get anything else done
02:45 BB at work It is a simple freeware program, and it took me forever to find it, but it is really nice
02:45 vw :)
02:46 BB at work Either there wasn't another Lion or OF got in the way
02:46 BB at work I think it might have erupted right before OF, but I can't really tell
02:47 vw I have been watching for about 10 minutes and haven't really seen anything other than steam from Little Cub
02:48 BB at work I have to get back to work now... weekend is almost here, yay
02:48 vw Dogs have settled down, so time to see if I can get some more sleep. Have a good day!
02:48 BB at work You too, sleep well
02:48 vw bye!
06:03 Ryan My streaming isnt working at 0603
06:03 Ryan but the static cam is starting to show some light
06:07 Ryan possible OF at 0606

07:04 BB So there were more eruptions. Didn't have time to check screenshots again after chatting with vw
07:05 BB Will do that later, have to unpack laptop first
07:05 BB That was a pretty short Lion, only lasted for two minutes
07:06 BB Streaming cam is still not working for me
07:11 BB OF 07:11 i.e.
07:28 BB Lion again at 07:27 i.e.
07:28 BB hi guest

08:25 BB Didn't realize that at the time, but it is clearly visible in the capture
08:26 BB And I think Plume was again 07:46 i.e.
08:26 BB Better put a question mark behind the second Plume, it looks like it but I am not completely sure

17:49 kcmule streaming cam just went kaput, that's it for me. have a great weekend everyone

February 27th, 2010

00:21 BB Static cam is working, visibility is good. No eruption so far, but two people out around OF just after midnight
00:22 BB And I spotted another almost invisible coyote in yesterday's captures.
00:22 BB http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=129182&l=6608a1b885&id=100000534101661
01:19 BB Depression was 01:06 i.e.
02:52 BB OF was 01:38 i.e.
02:55 BB And I think Lion was 01:24 i.e., and I also spotted BH
02:55 BB But I have to look through the captures some more to be sure
03:11 BB Ok, I have another Lion at 02:38 i.e.
03:12 BB The first one at 01:38 might have been the initial... it was huge and went on for about ten minutes
03:12 BB And I started capturing at midnight, and there was nothing in the Lion area before 01:38 except steam puffs
03:12 BB And Beehive was 02:08 i.e.
03:13 BB Oops, typo, I meant BH was 02:01 i.e.
03:13 BB What a busy night!
03:13 BB Will try to upload captures to Picasa later
03:15 BB Now I mixed up a Lion time with a OF time, think I will have to do a recap now, otherwise everybody will be confused
03:17 BB Feb 27, 2010 recap Beehive 02:01 i.e. Depression 01:06 i.e. Lion 01:24 i.e. (initial?), 02:38 i.e. OF 01:38 i.e.
03:57 BB OF was 03:03 i.e.
03:57 BB And now it is too dark to see anything... was looking for another Lion, but even OF steam is not really visible anymore
04:18 BB Captures are uploaded to Picasa
04:18 BB  
http://picasaweb.google.com/brieske24de/GeyserPict…
04:18 BB Now I will take a two hour break and be back for sunrise
04:27 steve TY BB, late I know but ty
06:30 BB Be sure to check out the seismograph this morning... the Chile earthquake is clearly visible
06:30 BB  
http://quake.utah.edu/helicorder/yft_webi.htm
06:31 BB And check out yesterday's graph, too, the beginning is visible there
06:31 BB If I didn't miscalculate, it started at 23:34 Yellowstone time
06:32 BB When I checked the seismograph at midnight YNP time, it was down, but now it is working again
06:33 BB Oh, and streaming cam is not working yet
06:44 BB Hi, Kent, Michael and guest
06:44 Michael Hi BB.
06:44 Kent Hi BB.
06:45 Michael You can also see a large aftershock in the Old Faithful seismogram at about 01:14 MST.
06:48 Kent Wow! 8.8 is some quake. I don't know that I have ever seen the seismograph that wild.
06:49 Michael Thanks for the overnight geyser updates. Pretty good chance that the day shift will see another Beehive, too.
06:50 Kent Some good captures last night BB. I am glad the clouds cleared enough for the moon to shine through.
06:51 BB And that the geyser cooperated and erupted like crazy :)
06:52 BB Lion 06:51 i.e.
06:55 Michael Nice to see the series is still going.
06:56 Graham morning
06:56 BB hi Graham
06:56 Michael Hello.
06:57 Kent Good morning Graham
06:58 Kent Streaming is up
07:02 Graham that was a big quake and lots of action on the seismograph
07:04 Michael If Giantess had erupted overnight we might have had trouble getting a start time.
07:08 Graham but would we care?
07:10 Kent If my math is correct, 8.8 is thirteen times more powerful than the 1959 Hebgen quake.
07:19 Graham got to be something like that
07:27 Graham just posted yesterdays data
07:29 vw Good morning/afternoon all!
07:29 BB hi vw
07:29 Graham morning vw
07:29 Graham I see you are enjoying the moonlit gazing BB
07:29 BobinGa Hi Graham, I am rather new at geyser watching. So where is the data posted? Thanks.
07:30 vw I love BBs night time reports!
07:30 BB it was a great night for moonlight gazing
07:30 vw based on her information, it is maybe possible that we will see a Beehive at the very end of our viewing day here.
07:31 vw Full moon tonight BB, but the forecast is for mostly cloudy. Lets hope thin clouds
07:34 Graham Its on the geyser listserve, email list.
https://lists.wallawalla.edu/mailman/listinfo/geys…
07:35 BobinGa ty
07:35 Graham you can subscribe and get emails from that list on geyser activity. There is usually a summary in the chat log at the end of each day too, click on the link above to read the old logs
07:35 Graham chat log link is at the top of pauls page
07:36 Graham this winter we have been putting the times out to the geyser email list each day. In summer someone at OF usually puts out an email.
07:41 BobinGa Graham, thanks for the info. There are a lot more web sites about geysers than I would have expected. Watching the OF streaming cam is just the beginning.
07:43 Graham yeah the
http://www.gosa.org
site has a lot of data, shows recent eruption data
07:45 Graham bbl
07:51 vw heading out. hope everyone has a good day.
07:51 vw bye.
07:51 BB bye vw
07:51 BB and OF 07:50 i.e.
07:51 BB and static is stuck before that
07:53 BobinGa Heading out too. Busy Sat. Good gazing, foks. C'Yall
07:53 BB bye Bob
07:56 BB I will take a break, too. bbl
08:01 Michael If Grand hasn't gone yet, it's certainly due.
08:02 Michael Lion 8:01ie
08:04 cb wow lots to look at and read in the log this am! hugh e-quake
08:04 Michael But it seems more likely that we missed Grand somewhere in the morning fog.
08:05 Michael Yes. It was one of those blink-my-eyes to see if I read the number right moments.
08:06 cb me too!!
08:06 cb just waking up! coffee done
08:08 Michael Depression 8:87ie
08:09 Michael That should be 8:07ie
08:24 Michael Or possibly not at all -- I may have gotten faked out by steam from the Dwarves.
08:33 Michael Also just re-checked my arithmetic, and getting Beehive before dark is at best a 50-50 shot. I am not a reliable source of information this morning.
08:51 Rich Hi Michael
08:51 Rich Hi Ryanb

08:51 Rich Hi guest124967
08:52 Ryan Tsunami to hit Hawaii soon
08:52 Ryan hi everyone
08:52 Michael Hi Rich. Hi Ryan.
08:52 Ryan is anyone watching the webcams in Hawaii to see the tsunami?
08:53 Michael It is predicted to arrive now, or for around 11:19 HST?
08:54 Rich 6 hours to go then.
08:54 Rich 5 hours ???
08:54 Ryan I thought they said 119EST
08:55 Ryan sry 1119EST
09:01 Rich Hi cb

from Yellowstone National Park FB
09:03 cb Love your reports BB Thank you!
09:03 BB yw, cb, it is really fun
09:03 BB Lion is going again
09:04 BB Lion 09:02 i.e. by my captures
09:05 BB I was just checking the tsunami predictions for Hawaii
09:05 BB Now I am confused with the times they give
09:05 Rich Lois is reading forecast to me now.
09:05 BB 12:46 am - would that be about lunchtime or in the middle of the night?
09:06 Rich Middle of the night
09:06 BB That's what I thought, thank you
09:06 BB So CNN got it wrong
09:07 BB They write that they will start evacuating at 6am HST, but the tsunami is not supposed to hit before 12:46 am
09:07 BB So they mean 12:46 pm
09:07 Rich For where?
09:07 Rich Hawaii?
09:08 BB I think so... they say local time
09:08 BB local time Hawaii
09:08 Rich There is a webcam at Hilo Bay, link to follow.
09:08 BB  
http://www.tsunami.org/hilobaycam.html
09:08 BB this one?
09:09 BB The sun is rising there right now
09:09 Rich  
http://www.tsunami.org/hilobaycam.html
09:09 Rich no image yet
09:09 BB I have an image
09:09 BB but not in Firefox
09:10 BB In Opera it is working fine
09:10 Rich k
09:11 BB Just tried IE, which I never use, but my old version gave me a picture too
09:11 Rich ty
09:11 BB But back to the predictions, I think Ryan's 11:19 time was HST
09:12 Rich Correct
09:12 BB They predicted some time after 10 pm German time, and we are 11 hours ahead of Hawaii right now
09:12 Rich Lois is searching for more Hawaii webcams, she seems to remember the Hilo webcam faces west.
09:14 Rich ~~~
09:14 BB According to CNN, they changed the prediction to 12:46, and they write 12:46 am local time Hawaii, which didn't make sense to me
09:15 BB Unless they were wrong or I had the wrong idea about what time 12:46 am was... so thanks for clearing that up
09:15 Michael Definitely a typo.
09:15 cb talking about a 3 ft rise in coastal waters in CA
09:16 cb potentially
09:20 Rich http://www.wxnation.com/honolulu/webcams/
09:20 Rich Going thru the list now.
09:22 Michael U.S. West Coast coastpredicted arrival times are here:
http://wcatwc.arh.noaa.gov/2010/02/27/725245/09/we…
09:25 Michael Should start in 3-4 hours in Souther California. 5-6 for Hawaii, Northern California and points further up the coast.
09:26 Rich If a tsunami is generated this direction.

09:36 BB Rich, I was wondering about the Hilo Bay cam facing west... now I was there in 1998. We did go to the museum but of course I don't remember much
09:36 BB And I think the museum might have moved in the meantime
09:36 BB But if you look at that map
09:36 BB  
http://www.tsunami.org/images/maps/tsunamitool/mus…
09:37 BB the cam can't be facing west
09:37 BB Then you wouldn't see the bay at all
09:38 BB So this might be a good cam to check, but it will be too late for me

09:59 Rich Hi steve
10:03 Michael New update 30 minutes ago. Arrival time at Hilo is now estimated 1105 HST, which is 14:05 Yellowstone time. Height crest to trough may be 2.5m or 8ft.

10:18 Rich I checked captures, my first capture of Riverside is 10:00:38ie
10:28 Rich New Zealand webcams
http://www.takeabreak.co.nz/new-zealand-webcams.as…
10:28 Rich if you cursor over the cam name, an icon will appear on the map showing it's location.
10:46 lc is that Grand or Oblong?
10:48 Rich I'm trying to time it, looking for first capture.
10:48 lc I think Grand but not sure.
10:49 Rich 4m from first I saw ie
10:50 Rich Looks like static cam froze for me at 10:48:12
10:51 kcmule i do not see any water columns
10:52 Michael Good question. If it's Grand the intervals from 12:49 yesteday are very short (7h20m) or very long (11h).
10:54 Rich Has it shut off?
10:55 Michael It was quiet on the webcam at 10:52.
10:56 Michael Big cloud back at 10:55.
10:56 Rich Sounds like Grand 2nd burst then.
10:56 lc I never did see any water spikes
10:57 lc could have been hid by steam
10:57 lc a little long for Oblong
10:57 Michael Or maybe Oblong went, and Grand is ie now...
10:58 Michael That's kind of what it looks like to me.
10:58 Rich restarting clock. g
10:58 lc OR maybe this is 2nd burst
10:58 Rich g
10:59 lc if this is not 2nd burst, I agree with Michael.

15:05 kcmule woah
15:05 kcmule BH 15:05:30
15:06 kcmule no indicator
15:08 Michael Wow! that was a bit of a surprise.
15:09 BB Wow! I have never seen Beehive twice in one day!
15:09 Michael Plume 15:09 ie
15:10 kcmule i dont have the heart to tell graham he left 5 mins before BH
15:10 xxxsexyjanaxxx hey
15:11 kcmule but i have good news, more on that in a bit

15:30 kcmule enjoy
15:36 Michael Thanks. Looked like the Indicator put in a brief appearance about 5-10 seconds before Beehive.
15:38 kcmule i thought the same thing
15:42 Michael I'm heading out again. Have a good evening kc.
15:56 kcmule OF 15:56
16:38 Kent Great capture. I am enjoying Beehive's variability. Thanks kcmule.
16:44 kcmule yw
18:09 lc kcmule, I just checked your capture of Beehive. thanks
18:09 lc looked like the indicator was about 12-15 seconds.
18:13 kcmule more like a turn signal than an indicator :)
18:14 kcmule Plume 18:13:59ie
18:14 lc yes
18:14 lc also did you notice the indicator had stopped one minute into the eruption?
18:15 kcmule i wouldnt know that to be unusual, is it?
18:16 lc most eruptions it will go about 2 to 2.5 minutes.
18:18 kcmule it surprised the heck out of me; was glad to be recording
18:18 lc when the steam cleared one minute in the indicator had stopped, so how much less than a minute I don't know.
18:20 lc I was watching a couple of minutes after Graham left, I went to eat and missed it. thanks for the capture.
18:21 kcmule yw, i hope to capture many more
18:22 lc I am going to call it a day. later.
18:23 kcmule nite lc

04:14 BB I didn't see anything else erupting this night. Visibility was good, but Lion and Beehive were obviously not in the mood.
04:14 BB And there was so much steam around Depression that I couldn't figure out anything from that
04:14 BB Now it is too dark to see anything else, will be back later.
06:30 BB Both cams working this morning

09:16 Rich Hi guest124967

09:17 Kent Good morning Rich

09:19 Michael Hi. Riverside was at 10:00 yesterday. Whatever was going at 829ie this morning must have been something else.

09:22 Michael (Yes, it is regular enough that even quadruple intervals are not random)

09:31 Michael Stream is back sometime before 9:31.

09:33 Rich Hi Derek

09:33 Derek Hi

09:44 Rich Hi guest012345

09:45 vw something going on over by Grand, but too steamy to see anything!

09:51 Michael Since we can't tell where the steam is coming from, let's just call it Giant (or Grand or Oblong) 9:45ie.

09:53 vw that would be sweet Michael!

09:54 Rich Works for me

09:54 vw just checked seismo, but nothing there. not sure Giant registers on it anyway?
09:54 Rich g
09:54 Michael Nope. Only Giantess.
09:55 vw very odd how the steam/fog is sweeping in
09:55 Rich Hi kcmule
09:57 kcmule mornin
10:01 Michael Well I feel safe ruling out Giant now (shucks!) based on duration. So the steam cloud was either Grand, Oblong, or an atmospheric effect.
10:01 vw maybe a hot period? ever hopeful...
10:03 Michael They could be hapening all the time and we'd never know from here...
10:04 Michael Well, I can't spend the whole day watching geysers. Be back later.
10:09 Rich bye Micahel

12:27 Rich I just did a safari run thru my captures looking for moving black spots. g
12:28 vw think all the creatures are in the Lamar Rich. Sure saw a lot yesterday when over with my teen.
12:32 Rich  Grass should be greening up nicely in Heyden and Lamar.
12:36 vw not as much snow in the Lamar as I would have expected this time of year. More as you move east.
12:40 Rich OF growing tenacles?
12:59 vw Even if Plume wre to go I am afraid we would miss it with OF steaming the way it is!
13:01 vw sun bsking on the benches!

13:44 Rich away in eruption
13:45 SwissRe still no idea
13:46 vw if one of the geysers is in active eruption, but we didnt see the start, we just indicate it as ie
13:46 Rich away I didn't get a shut off time, but looks like it was before 13:43
13:47 vw sometimes SwissRe it is a matter of not seeing it, sometimes a matter of the time delay on the cam
13:47 Rich away I still had steam at 13:41
13:48 Rich away bbl
13:57 vw Daisy 1357 ie
14:15 vw Castle 1414 ie

14:32 Derek If only those trees weren't there LOL
14:34 vw Bruce would certainly agree with you!
14:34 Derek I'm sure he would
14:34 vw if the pine bark beetle keeps at it, we will have a clear view soon enough. :(
14:35 Derek Maybe the problem would be solved if they decide to move the cam to a higher point.
14:36 vw so much chatter about if the cam is going to be moved, where it might go, etc that I am very curious what will happen!
14:37 vw I vote for 2 streaming cams and about 4 static!
14:38 Derek After the excellent live broadcast last summer from the roof of Old Faithful Inn, I know where I would LIKE the cam to be :-)
14:38 vw that is SOOOO true D! that was an amazing view!

17:29 Ryan This am i saw something( i think its down as Riverside 08-something ie) But i think someone else said it wasnt riverside because of its eruption time yesterday
17:31 Graham yeah thats not really right for RIverside. Maybe Artemisia?
17:37 cb that was a nice ...puff outta depression]
17:37 Rich  
http://www.gosa.org/geysers/RIVERSIDE/eruptions/Ri…
17:39 Graham thanks Rich. It can get a couple of hours earlier day-to-day
17:39 Graham so it could have been RIverside
17:39 Graham looks like Depression is heating up

17:55 Graham Riverside 1754ie?
17:55 Michael I think we may have Riverside 17:55ie
17:57 Michael Although it's not the world clearest steam cloud...
17:57 cb a little weak
18:03 Rich Just for duck soup I'll throw in activity at F&M.
18:10 Michael It's one of those days that we just can't get a handle on what's going on downbasin. So F&M is a real possibility.
18:11 Michael My opinion is that 17:54 fits in pretty well with the last couple days of Riverside times. But that would carry much more weight if we'd seen Riverside at 11-something this morning as well.
18:12 cb OF 1812
18:12 Graham nice view
18:13 Ryan Then what was at 829?
18:13 Graham quite a few people out enjoying the warm weather
18:14 Michael Didn't see it. If there was a big cloud downbasin I'd suspect F&M.
18:14 Graham could have been Artemisia, Link, F&M, East Sentinel,
18:15 Graham screenshots over a 20min period might help :)
18:15 Ryan artemesia maybe, Link? humm MAybE(not) east sentenials dormant right, and it was a fairly large steam cloud, why i didnt save a pic of it ill never kno
18:16 Graham you asked what it might be..hehe...they have all erupted in the last decade
18:16 Graham when I have been in the park
18:16 Graham only one I have not seen is Link but have seen the wash
18:17 Ryan i saw artemesia in 2009 but i think the steam cloud durationm was too long for artemesia it definately didnt have the :mushroom shape" cloud i saw before on the cam that F7m made
18:18 Graham but Artemisia steam probably lasts longer than F&M - at least longer until theres a pause
18:18 Graham brb
18:19 Michael (checks map) Looks like Artemisia should be more behind Grotto/Giant.
